Cartier replenishes the beauty, timeless charm, and significance of its linchpin Santos with this more elegant and discerning Santos Dumont.
Why we love it
In 2019, Cartier elevated the clout of its Santos collection with the introduction of Santos Dumont watches, including this reference WSSA0032. Drawing inspiration from the original, this Santos Dumont embraces Cartier's signature design aesthetics in a highly elegant fashion. It's a stylish timepiece with an impressive slim profile, rendering it a standout accompaniment to any tasteful ensemble.
The case measures a humble 27.5mm and has a thickness of 7.3mm only. Accommodating both polished and brushed finishes, the case furnishes an elegant personality, and the beaded crown with the blue cabochon and screws on the rose gold bezel nod to the iconic Cartier design trope.
The dial asserts a similar admiration for historical details featuring Roman numeral hour markers, railroad minute track, and sword-shaped blue hands. A fine sunburst finish that blankets the silver dial exalts the refined character of the watch.
Please note this Cartier Santos Dumont W2SA0012 bears noticeable scratches on the caseback and buckle. Its leather strap is in good condition.
Provenance
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.
Please note all our transactions with sellers are conducted via registered banking channels, accompanied by a signed affidavit, banking proof, and PAN card.
A specific affidavit stating the watch is not a stolen property and that all applicable duties have been paid is also obtained from the seller and is available for buyers in case of legal requirements.
We strive to build trust through transparency and diligence, outlining our verification process and the inherent limitations. Our commitment to integrity shapes every transaction, prioritising your confidence while acknowledging the realities of the pre-owned watch market.
