I’m back to Cartier after a very long hiatus. This was the model that caught my eye when I was accompanying a friend to the Cartier boutique recently. An elegant 2 hand Santos-Dumont XL, manual wind in RG. Comparing the different metals, this one stood ou...  

That looks great — love the image of sipping cognac or scotch, by a fire, with that watch on the wrist.

Thank you. Also one to wear during the festive season. :)

Congrats, a stunning version! This week I was paying a couple of surprise visits to ADs and my girlfriend had a chance to try on a few Santos-Dumonts as well...I believe both are smaller versions than yours, and looked beautiful!

They do look good on her. Which was her choice?

 
 By: fernando : November 25th, 2021-09:54

Thank-You. They promised to try to get her (but I'd wear them too! ;-)) a couple of the new Must (green and blue dials)...fingers crossed because they don't come easily and we are not technically customers of this AD! We'll see :-)

Beautiful watch

I have been cruising the website looking at the tank cintree. Something so classy about cartier.

Thank you. There is a classy elegance about them which seems to be perfect for this time of year.

Very tasteful. The DS XL has some very nice variants indeed.

Thank you. I've not paid much attention to them until recently.

Well done. A model that oozes class!

Thank you, I agree. :)

Concise

It's a beauty, and the lack of unessential text on the dial is refeshing.

Thanks very much.

Congratulations Fernando ! …

It’s a cool classic choice.

Thank you Capt. As I get older my preference is for the simpler things. :)

 
 By: fernando : November 25th, 2021-10:00

Superb addition Fernando! What I like about it is that it very classy yet can be worn down with style as well!

Thank you. It works well with smart casual.

 
 By: fernando : November 26th, 2021-02:03

Superb.

Thank you.

 
 By: fernando : November 26th, 2021-02:03

Very nice indeed. I bought a couple of these in 2019 for my brother-in-law and his partner. Owing to unforeseen circumstances they'll only get them next month

 
 By: Age_of_Surfaces : November 25th, 2021-16:22
Enjoy yours. You've made an EXCELLENT choice with that particular configuration of size and metal.

Thanks. I'm sure they will be very pleased when it arrives.

I have one myself, and winding the 430MC movement is like butter. Enjoy it in good health.

I agree about the winding - such a pleasure! Thank you so much.

Huge congrats Fernando!

Such elegance packed into a watch with such great history. Enjoy in great health !
