CartierSantos de CartierModel No: W20107X7-G19A

Santos 100 is a great proposition for anyone looking for a well-crafted, versatile timepiece that could work with both formal and casual looks. Visually, the design is a more sporty representation of the iconic Santos. However, the way it feels on the wrist is so Cartier. The watch is really all about the case - fearlessly square. Square watches are a niche that Santos has undoubtedly mastered, and this Santos 100 takes the legacy elegantly forward. The engineering is excellent with smooth curves, a brushed stainless steel construction, and the refined 18k rose gold bezel carrying the signature screws. The seamless union of steel and rose gold is beguiling and creates a strong wrist presence.

The gorgeous black dial is replete with signature elements, such as the Roman numeral hour markers, the minute track at the centre of the dial, and the brand signature. Inside the 35mm, 100m water-resistant case beats a self-winding movement that ensures a power reserve of 38 hours.

At Second Movement, the pre-owned division of Ethos Watches, we adhere to a rigorous verification process where expert watchmakers carefully inspect every watch to certify its authenticity, ensuring it is not counterfeit. We also go to the maximum extent possible to ensure that the timepiece is not a stolen property and that all duties are paid. However, in the absence of any central database, a 100% verification is unlikely for any pre-owned entity in India. Nevertheless, we can still provide a provenance guarantee for watches purchased from Ethos.
