A pioneer in modern watchmaking. The Cartier Santos was originally created in 1904 for aviator Alberto Santos-Dumont, making it one of the first wristwatches designed at a time when pocket watches were the norm. Its exposed screws and square bezel challenged traditional round watch design, establishing an enduring icon. The Santos Galbée, introduced in the late 20th century, refined the original with a gently curved case and bracelet for enhanced comfort and fluidity on the wrist. In stainless steel and yellow gold, this model balances aviation history, architectural design, and everyday sophistication.
