Santos de Cartier
In 1904, the jeweler-watchmaker Louis Cartier created one of the first
Watch on a leather bracelet so that his friend, the aviator Alberto Santos-
Dumont could read the time while he was at the wheel of his plane.
Such an original creation did not go unnoticed, and Cartier became
Inundated with requests. And so the saga began,
A collection of watches in the style of this visionary and elegant character.
The first came onto the market in 1978.
Its screw decor quickly became a symbol that Cartier would adopt
To numerous product lines.
Also on the correction frames and sunglasses, the screw decor
Symbolizes an encounter between two points in time: progress and
Tradition.
