The Santos de Cartier Look

Robust by nature, the Santos’ renowned square case and the screws that secured the glass were intended to recall the four legs of the new Eiffel Tower, whose construction was finalized in 1889. Similarly, the blackened Roman numerals are a nod to the radial layout of Paris’ streets and wide boulevards. One of the defining elements of the Santos de Cartier watch is its signature square bezel with visible screws, adding a touch of modernity to the overall design. The dial is clean and minimalist and showcases Roman numeral hour markers, coupled with sword-shaped hands that enhance legibility and lend a classic touch to the timepiece. Bracelets in the line are either stainless steel, leather, or gold variations.
