In 1904, the Brazilian aviator Alberto Santos-Dumont complained to his friend Louis Cartier that he could not check a pocket watch while flying his early aircraft, and Cartier responded with a flat, square-cased watch meant to be worn on the wrist and read at a glance. The exposed screws and geometric case became one of the most enduring designs in watchmaking, and the Santos-Dumont line is the purest expression of that original 1904 spirit, stripped of the integrated bracelet and bezel screws of the sportier Santos de Cartier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThis reference is a large model with the case and bezel finished with black lacquer over steel. The dial features Cartier's signature Roman numerals over a concentric square pattern that emphasizes the geometry of the case. The beaded crown is set with the traditional blue synthetic spinel cabochon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThis version runs the hand-wound caliber 430 MC, a modified Piaget 430P, one of the thinnest manual movements available.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Excellent with minimal signs of wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncludes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Card and Cartier travel pouch.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cartier","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51545157992754,"sku":null,"price":7499.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0834\/6773\/1250\/files\/IMG_8722.jpg?v=1785960189","url":"https:\/\/bernsteinwatchco.com\/products\/2024-cartier-santos-dumont-large-model-wssa0046-papers","provider":"Bernstein Watch Co","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
