In 1904, Louis Cartier fulfilled the wish of renowned Brazilian aviator Alberto Santos Dumont: to tell time while flying. This collaboration marked the birth of one of the earliest wristwatches, cementing a bond of friendship between two pioneers. The design, with its rounded dial angles, seamless horn curves, and exposed screws, became iconic, inspiring countless reinterpretations over the years.

The Santos Dumont is an exceptional timepiece, steeped in a rich and illustrious history. Crafted in rose gold, it boasts a silver sunburst dial, blued sword hands, and a vertically brushed case enhanced by a polished bezel and chamfered edges. Closely echoing the Santos Dumont’s early 20th-century design, this larger version measures 34mm, aligning perfectly with modern size preferences.

Powered by the in-house manual 430 MC movement, the watch achieves an impressively slim profile of just 7.5mm, ensuring effortless wearability beneath a dress shirt cuff. Its Roman numerals offer perfect legibility, while its versatility makes it equally suited as a daily companion or for more formal, special occasions.

Over a century since its inception, the Santos Dumont remains relevant, sophisticated, and above all, timeless.
