Cartier Santos Carree - a true icon from one of the most recognisable watch designs ever created.
The Cartier Santos Carree represents a pivotal chapter in the evolution of the Santos, combining the sharp architectural lines of the original design with the luxury and refinement that made Cartier famous. Elegant, distinctive, and effortlessly wearable, it remains one of the most sought-after vintage Cartier references.
This one-owner bi-metal example features an automatic movement, an 18ct yellow gold bezel, matching gold bracelet screws, and beautiful 18ct yellow gold Roman numeral hour markers set against a crisp white dial.
The watch has been carefully worn and exceptionally well preserved, remaining in genuinely excellent condition for its age. There are no significant marks to the case, and importantly, the bracelet shows virtually no wear - something increasingly uncommon on vintage Santos models.
The bright white dial is perfectly balanced by the gold numerals and matching hands, while the signature Cartier sapphire cabochon crown completes the unmistakable Santos aesthetic.
Supplied with a Cartier service pouch, the original boxes and papers have unfortunately been lost over the years.
Recently tested by Cartier-certified watch specialists Michlmayr & Co, this Cartier Santos Carree is running beautifully and ready to be enjoyed by its next owner.
Crafted by Cartier, the Santos remains one of the most important and enduring watch designs of the last century and the Carree is one of its most charismatic expressions.
