Fine watches

The Santos-Dumont watch in the small model pays tribute to the timepiece created by Louis Cartier in 1904 for Brazilian aviator Alberto Santos-Dumont. The steel case with rounded corners, curved lugs and exposed screws embodies the collection’s iconic aesthetic. The model is powered by a high-autonomy quartz movement with a battery life of approximately eight years. The satin-brushed silvered dial with a sunray finish features Roman numerals and blued-steel sword-shaped hands. The beaded crown is set with a blue synthetic spinel cabochon, while sapphire crystal protects the dial. A dark blue alligator-leather strap is fitted with a steel ardillon buckle. Case dimensions: 38 × 27.5 mm; thickness: 7.3 mm. Water resistance: up to 3 bar, or approximately 30 metres.
