Cartier WHSA0044 Santos Dumont Steel

Cartier Santos-Dumont Micro-Rotor Skeleton in stainless-steel with automatic 9629 MC movement, sapphire cabochon crown, skeleton bridges and 44-hour power reserve.

This large model features a steel case enhanced with black lacquer, creating a striking contrast against the openworked architecture of the dial. The bridges, also coated in black lacquer, form the structured Roman numeral motif, an iconic Cartier design element seamlessly integrated into the skeletonized movement. Blued-steel sword-shaped hands add a refined touch, while sapphire crystal and a transparent caseback reveal the intricate mechanics within.

Powered by the automatic mechanical calibre 9629 MC, the watch incorporates a micro-rotor to preserve its elegant proportions while delivering reliable performance. The beaded steel crown is set with a cabochon sapphire, a distinctive Cartier signature detail.

Completing the piece is a black alligator leather strap secured by a steel ardillon buckle, with an additional dark grey alligator strap included for versatile styling. A refined balance of modern monochrome design and high watchmaking craftsmanship, this Santos-Dumont embodies technical sophistication within an unmistakably Cartier silhouette.
