Defined by its square 42mm brushed stainless steel case, the Santos 100 XL Chronograph reference W20090X8 carries the hallmarks of the Santos lineage: a fixed stainless steel bezel secured by eight signature screws and a solid case back fastened by the same count. The screw-down crown is set with a faceted synthetic spinel, adding a refined accent to the overall form. A scratch-resistant sapphire crystal protects the view within.
The silvered opaline dial is organized around radial Roman numeral hour markers, with chronograph sub-dials arranged to track hours, minutes, small seconds, and date. The watch is worn on a black alligator leather strap fastened by a double adjustable folding clasp — a pairing that balances the sporting architecture of the case with a dressy material choice.
Powering the watch is the automatic self-winding caliber 8630, delivering the chronograph complications that make this reference both practical and compelling. Offered in excellent pre-owned condition, the W20090X8 represents the Santos collection at its most robust and purposeful.
