In 1904 Louis Cartier granted the wish of his friend, the famous Brazilian aviator Alberto Santos Dumont, to be able to tell the time while flying. With this promise came the birth of one of the first ever wristwatches. Featuring a geometric shape and exposed screws, the Santos-Dumont watch quickly became one of the Maison's horological icons. Crafted with a steel case, a satin-brushed dial is detailed with sapphire crystal and blue sword-shaped hands, while a genuine alligator skin strap brings luxury to your wrist.
