Founded in 1847 in Paris, Cartier is one of the most prestigious names in luxury watchmaking, celebrated for its timeless designs and pioneering role in the development of the modern wristwatch. The Santos collection holds a special place in horological history, originally created in 1904 for aviator Alberto Santos-Dumont and widely regarded as one of the first purpose-designed wristwatches.
The Cartier Santos Galbée XL, reference 2823, features a classic stainless steel case with the instantly recognizable square shape, exposed screws on the bezel, and refined brushed and polished finishes. The silvered dial is adorned with bold black Roman numerals and blued sword-shaped hands, offering excellent legibility and unmistakable Cartier elegance. Powered by a reliable automatic movement, it provides precise timekeeping with hours, minutes, and central seconds.
A scratch-resistant sapphire crystal protects the dial, while the integrated stainless steel bracelet ensures a seamless and comfortable fit on the wrist. Designed for everyday wear, the Santos combines robustness with refined style, making it suitable for both formal and casual settings.
