The Cartier Santos de Cartier watch can be regarded as the world's first true wristwatch, with a history spanning over a century. In 1904, Cartier launched a t.mes
piece designed to be worn on the wrist, named after his close friend Alberto Santos-Dumont, which is the origin of the Santos watch. At that t.mes
, so-called wristwatches were merely makeshift models, essentially pocket watches strapped to the wrist, with the crown still positioned at 12 o'clock! Santos's groundbreaking design relocated the crown to the 3 o'clock position and adorned the crown with a natural blue spinel, whose enchanting blue glow continues to captivate countless consumers to this day.Today, we present the latest upgraded version of the Santos from 2018, featuring a brand-new quick-release mechanism that requires no tools simply press gently with your hands to detach the strap. This patented technology is one of a kind. With a 40mm case diameter, it houses the original SW200 movement, has a sapphire crystal, offers 100m water resistance, and comes in the latest black box from the authorized retailer! It is a perfect gift for oneself or for others.
