About this piece

The Cartier Santos de Cartier Large WSSA0030 is a masterful fusion of heritage and contemporary design, showcasing one of the Maison’s most iconic creations in a bold modern expression. Crafted in stainless steel, the 39.8 mm Santos case features Cartier’s unmistakable square silhouette with polished and brushed surfaces, softened corners, and exposed bezel screws, a design first created in 1904 for aviation pioneer Alberto Santos-Dumont. This reference is distinguished by its captivating gradient blue dial, transitioning seamlessly from deep navy at the edges to a lighter blue center, accented by polished Roman numerals and sword-shaped hands. At its heart beats the Cartier manufacture Calibre 1847 MC, an automatic movement offering approximately 42 hours of power reserve and dependable daily performance. The watch is water-resistant to 100 metres, making it as practical as it is refined. Completing the package is Cartier’s innovative SmartLink steel bracelet and QuickSwitch system, allowing effortless tool-free sizing and instant strap changes between the bracelet and the included blue leather strap ensuring versatility for any occasion. The Santos WSSA0030 is not just a watch, but a timeless statement of design, innovation, and enduring elegance.
