Created in 1904 by Louis Cartier for aviator Alberto Santos‑Dumont, the Cartier Santos is widely recognised as one of the first purpose‑built wristwatches. Its square case and exposed screws signalled a shift from pocket watches to modern practicality, making the Santos watch an enduring design icon. Today, collectors value both vintage Cartier Santos references and later evolutions for their blend of function and refined aesthetics.
Pre-owned Cartier Santos watches are sought after for their design heritage and everyday wearability. The distinctive square bezel and visible screws deliver a recognisable profile, while robust movements and practical water resistance make the watch suited to daily use. Many enthusiasts also appreciate the variety of sizes, materials and dials available - from classic steel to elegant two‑tone - making it easy to find a used Cartier Santos that fits your style. Vintage Cartier Santos pieces, in particular, offer period charm with timeless sophistication.
