This unique watch model owes its name to the aviation pioneer Alberto Santos Dumont. It first appeared in 1904 and, as legend has it, it was created by Cartier on Santos’ order to help the Brazilian pilot keep time correctly.
The watch remained a legend and after over a hundred years, the Santos model received another incarnation. This time it is a skeleton masterpiece made of rose gold, with a transparent case made of sapphire glass. The watch mechanism inside is unique, with elements also made of rose gold. At first, the untrained eye will see mainly gears and intersecting strips of precious metal. Only a careful look will reveal the Roman numerals – III, VI, IX, XII located around the square center of the watch mechanism.
This unique men’s timepiece is made, along with the bracelet, almost entirely of rose gold.
