Cartier Santos de Cartier — Small Model, Ref. W2SA0033

One of the most storied names in watchmaking, the Santos de Cartier traces its origins to 1904, when Louis Cartier designed a wristwatch for his friend Alberto Santos-Dumont — the pioneering Brazilian aviator who needed to read the time without taking his hands off the controls. More than a century later, the Santos remains one of the most recognizable and enduring watch designs in the world.

This small model ref. W2SA0033 is crafted in 18 karat yellow gold and steel, with the signature square case, seamlessly curved lugs, and exposed polished screws that define the Santos silhouette. The silver sunray dial is appointed with Roman numerals and blued-steel sword-shaped hands — timeless Cartier hallmarks. A 7-sided crown set with a synthetic faceted blue spinel adds a jewel-like finishing touch.

Powering the watch is a precise Swiss quartz movement.

The watch arrives with two wearing options: an 18K yellow gold and steel bracelet, and a second strap in dark blue calfskin leather with a steel ardillon buckle — both fitted with Cartier’s QuickSwitch interchangeability system for effortless transitions.

Case dimensions are 27mm x 34.5mm with a 7.08mm thickness, and the watch is water resistant to 30 meters.
