“A semi-subtle” watch
for a conference today.
I managed to acquire this little gem last year. For certain occasions, it’s simply perfect.
Final sprint before the weekend! Wishing you all a beautiful and successful Friday, my dear watch friends.

Very nice one
I wish Cartier would offer more guilloche dials like in the old cpcp days.
It’s really fascinating.
I am not sure if we should show the movement to our dear friend Salman. He analyzes and verbally dissects almost every movement. And his conclusions are not always flattering. 😁
A lovely dress watch indeed 🙌🏻👌🏻👔
Really like this one - what is the specific version?
At Watches & Wonders 2023
Cartier presented a rather unusual trio within the Santos-Dumont XL line. Three precious metal cases, three stone dials, and three different stone numeral sets. This is the rose gold version, limited to 200 pieces, powered by the manually wound 430 MC.
Here
the case is in platinum and cabochon is a red ruby, and the Roman numerals are made of jasper. I’m not sure whether that might be too much for a men’s watch.
Nice
This is a very nice watch - I like it a lot! Short question: The numerals, are they in stone as well? The color is nice and is matching the cabochon Have a great conference and happy Friday ! Jerome
Thanks a lot, dear Jerome! 🙏
Yes, instead of printed numerals, Cartier uses green jade for the indexes. Not painted, not applied metal, but real jade. 🙏☺️ ...
Thanks a lot, Swiss Guy!
I first saw this watch in 2024 on the wrist of the Managing Director of my AD. It caught my eye immediately. I was completely fascinated. When I asked him if there was any chance to acquire one, he told me that this model was so special that it had sold o...
I kept this gem
from him for over a year. I never wore the watch whenever I visited his shop. Just so he wouldn’t feel offended. LOLLL
Thank you, my dear friend!
Some watches impress. This one whispers. And the hunt, unfortunately, never really ends…
A discreet dandy, I would say.
It prefers the right occasion rather than every occasion. Thanks a lot, dear Moritz!
