Back in 1978, Cartier unveiled a wristwatch that would redefine the Santos collection. The pioneering model showcased a striking blend of steel and 18k yellow gold, introducing a polished yellow gold bezel and an innovative bracelet adorned with yellow gold screws interspersed among the steel links. This avant-garde creation marked a significant evolution from the original Cartier Santos Carrée, which emerged as the inaugural men's wristwatch in 1904 but lacked a bracelet and was exclusively crafted in steel.

Since its introduction, this neo-vintage marvel has garnered immense interest from collectors worldwide. The watch merges vintage and modern design elements, making it a classic for those captivated by the seamless integration of the past and present.
