The Cartier Santos De Cartier WSSA0047 sits confidently at the intersection of horology and high jewellery, embodying a design legacy that dates back to 1904—when Louis Cartier created the Santos for aviation pioneer Alberto Santos-Dumont. Today, that spirit of innovation lives on in a refined, contemporary form crafted for modern luxury buyers.
This large-model Santos features a 39.8mm stainless steel case accented by a distinctive blue PVD bezel, offering a subtle yet striking contrast against the grey striated dial. Sword-shaped steel hands and applied hour markers, all treated with luminescent material, ensure clarity while reinforcing Cartier’s unmistakable design language. The signature blue synthetic spinel crown adds a refined finishing touch that jewellery-minded buyers will instantly appreciate.
Powering the watch is the Cartier Manufacture Calibre 1847 MC automatic movement, known for its reliability, efficiency, and everyday robustness. Protected by a sapphire crystal and water-resistant to 100 metres, this Santos is as practical as it is elegant—perfectly suited to both daily wear and formal occasions.
One of this reference’s standout features is its versatility. The watch comes fitted with a steel bracelet featuring Cartier’s SmartLink adjustment system, allowing for easy sizing without tools. It also includes an additional blue rubber strap, both equipped with Cartier’s QuickSwitch interchangeable system, enabling effortless style changes to suit different settings or moods.
Presented as a complete set with box and papers, this example is offered in good condition with minimal signs of wear and has been fully inspected and authentication certified. For buyers seeking an elegant jewellery-watch crossover, strong brand heritage, and lasting desirability, the Cartier Santos De Cartier WSSA0047 is a sophisticated addition to any collection—or a standout luxury gift with enduring appeal.
