Introducing: The New Cartier Santos-Dumont Brings An Elegant Metal Bracelet And Obsidian Stone Dial To The Collection



The brand says the new bracelet is inspired by the flexibility of the maison’s made-to-measure metal watch straps developed back in the 1920s. It aims for a smooth drape, with 1.15 mm-thick links forming the mesh, composed of 15 rows for a total of 394 links. Each bracelet is made with these elements, which are machined, finished, and assembled at the Cartier manufacture, it says. 

Available in Cartier’s LM model size, the case measures 43.5 mm in diameter by 31.4 mm wide and is 7.4 mm thick. In addition to the obsidian dial, there is a platinum version with a satin-finish, sunray dial, and another yellow gold version, featuring the same blued hands and satin-finish dial. 

The hand-wound, 430 MC mechanical manufacture movement is Cartier’s version of the ultra-thin Piaget 430P that powers the watch, beating at 3Hz and offering approximately 43 hours of power reserve.

Pricing wasn’t yet available at the time of publishing.
