Housed in a black ADLC steel case measuring 39.8 mm wide and 9.08 mm thick, this large Santos de Cartier is defined by its skeletonised dial, where the movement's bridges are shaped into Roman numerals and finished in grey lacquer. A 7-sided crown set with a grey spinel, grey steel sword-shaped hands, and both a sapphire crystal and sapphire case back complete the refined aesthetic.
Inside beats the Manufacture mechanical manual-winding caliber 9611 MC — a 138-part movement incorporating 20 rubies, a 28,800 vph balance, and dimensions of 28 mm x 28 mm with a thickness of just 3.97 mm. The watch is water-resistant to 10 bar (approximately 100 meters).
Versatility is built in: the watch ships with a steel bracelet featuring Cartier's SmartLink adjustment system and a second strap in grey alligator leather with an interchangeable steel folding buckle, both compatible with the QuickSwitch interchangeability system for effortless swapping between the two.
