Cartier Santos Large 39.8mm
WSSA0018

The Santos de Cartier Ref. WSSA0018 continues one of the most famous stories in watchmaking. Cartier originally designed the Santos in 1904 for the aviator Alberto Santos-Dumont. This Cartier Santos Large brings that legacy into the modern age. It offers a fresh take on the timeless square case at 39.8mm.

Design of the Cartier Santos Large

The case is crafted in stainless steel. It features Cartier’s signature exposed screws on the bezel and bracelet. In addition, a silvered opaline dial carries bold Roman numerals and blued steel hands.

The design is instantly recognisable. It blends heritage with contemporary refinement. As a result, it feels elegant yet sporty at the same time.

Movement and QuickSwitch

Inside beats the Cartier Calibre 1847 MC. This automatic movement was developed for reliability and everyday performance. Therefore, it offers smooth operation and lasting durability.

The watch also features Cartier’s QuickSwitch system. With it, you can swap between a steel bracelet and a leather strap in seconds. In other words, you get two different looks from one watch.

Why choose the Santos de Cartier

The Santos is a true design icon. It combines history, innovation and unmistakable style in one package. Above all, it is a watch that works with a suit on Monday and with jeans on Saturday.
