Inspired by the Santos-Dumont Legacy
The Santos-Dumont collection has its origins in 1904, when Louis Cartier created a wristwatch for Brazilian aviator Alberto Santos-Dumont so he could read the time while flying. This pioneering connection helped establish the Santos design as one of Cartier’s enduring watchmaking icons.
The Cartier Santos Dumont WGSA0032 preserves this historic character through its geometric case, exposed-screw-inspired design language, and exceptionally slim profile.
Elegant Silver Sunray Dial
One of the defining features of the WGSA0032 is its sophisticated silver satin-finish dial with a sunray effect.
The dial features:
- Classic Roman numeral hour markers
- Blue sword-shaped hands
- Refined Cartier branding
- Signature blue sapphire cabochon crown
The combination of the silver dial and blue hands creates a timeless appearance that works particularly well with formal and business attire.
Premium 18K Rose Gold Construction
The Cartier Santos Dumont WGSA0032 features an 18K rose gold case and matching rose gold ardillon buckle. Its warm metallic finish gives the watch a luxurious appearance while complementing the silver dial and grey leather strap.
The slim 7.5 mm case profile allows the watch to sit elegantly beneath a shirt cuff while maintaining a distinctive wrist presence.
A sapphire crystal protects the dial and provides excellent clarity.
