About this reference

1904, Louis Cartier granted the wish of the famous Brazilian aviator Alberto Santos Dumont: to be able to tell time while flying. The birth of one of the first ever wristwatches sealed the bonds of friendship between these two pioneers. The rounded angles of the dial, the seamless curve of the horns, and the exposed screws made for an iconic watch that would inspire countless reinterpretations. Santos-Dumont watch, extra-large model, Manufacture mechanical movement with manual winding, caliber 430 MC. 18K yellow gold (750/1000) case, beaded crown set with a sapphire cabochon, wood inspired golden dial, Roman numerals, golden-finish steel sword-shaped hands, sapphire crystal.

Case dimensions: 46.6 mm x 33.9 mm, thickness: 7.5 mm. Water-resistant up to 3 bar (approx. 30 meters/100 feet).
