Cartier Santos De Cartier Chronograph Extra Large, WSSA0017

We are proud to present this stylish Cartier Santos de Cartier Chronograph Extra Large watch for sale.

Some may not know this, but the Santos was the first collection ever produced by Mr Louis Cartier in 1904 (13 years before the Tank!). Stemming from his relationship with his aviator friend Alberto Santos-Dumont, who often complained about the legibility of his other watches. Cartier designed the original Santos to be elegant, functional, but above all legible and he certainly achieved that.

This reference the WSSA0017 is set in a contemporary 43.3mm stainless steel curved case, which is 12.5mm thick giving it a slim profile on the wrist. The bezel has a black ADLC coating, giving it a greater contrast to the case and featuring the iconic Santos screws. The dial is a satin-brushed silver with 3 chronograph subdials, full black printed Roman numerals, black train-track minute markers and a date feature at 6 o’clock. It is fitted with a convex sapphire crystal glass and the crown features a black spinel cabochon. It comes fitted on a black rubber strap which has 12 classic Santos screws on the shoulders, quick release spring bars and a folding deployant clasp. It is powered by the in-house Cartier calibre 1904 CH MC automatic chronograph movement; protected by an 8 screw case back for water resistance of up to 100M.

Originally purchased in December 2022 and in mint condition, this Santos comes with its Cartier box, care booklet, additional black 'Gomma' alligator skin strap, strap tool, original purchase invoice and international warranty card.

This watch is covered by its extended Cartier Warranty until December 2030.
