SANTOS-DUMONT | Cartier Demo Black

Louis Cartier granted the famous Brazilian pilot Alberto Santos Dumont the desire to be able to tell the time while flying. The birth of one of the earliest wristwatches sealed the friendship links between these pioneers. The rounded corners of the dial, the smooth curve of the lugs, and the exposed screws of a creative watch that would inspire countless reinterpretations.
