Totally agree with your choice of the medium in gold. It looks beautiful and proportional without screaming "LOOK, BLING!!!" It'll look wonderful with both everyday and formal wear. Congratulations!
I agree. Perfect size for a perfect watch. I saw a short video recently (probably a troll) of some watch aficionado saying people buy the Cartier Santos because they can't get a Rolex lol. I'm thinking dude, the current Santos is more beautiful than any Rolex I've seen, that's why I want it instead of a Rolex.
@@TyronieusYeah poor people who own no watches are the only one saying that crap. The same people who say tudor is for people who cant afford Rolex. A real watch enthusiast likes watches in all price ranges they don't have to pick only from the most expensive.
I know people who own so many really luxury brands, but they live in their mom's house. I own a house, drive a Lexus, and I do buy stuff *gtdupe* to put money in my pocket.

I love that you shoot your videos in 4K. So many other content creators only record in 1080p and you can easily keep my attention by having high quality videos.
The Cartier Santos is such a beautiful watch. I like the gold and two tone (gold and silver) in the medium size. Thank you for sharing your experience Ben.
Really, really enjoy your videos. Couple of thoughts . . . Use the soft Cartier pouch for your bracelets when you travel. It’s perfect for that. Regarding the “croc effect” leather. Cartier only uses authentic alligator. Yes, the deployant clasp is solid gold. No plating at Cartier. Regarding availability. I’ve seen both sizes of solid Gold Santos de Cartier’s in person at two Watches of Switzerland Boutiques. So I’m surprised that Cartier wouldn’t have them readily available. Perhaps that’s a sales line to increase desire? Just a thought. Lastly, keep up the great work, your videos are so interesting. You’re a great curator of all the things I like!
Medium is the move. 👌🏼 That deployant clasp is indeed gold and usually costs about $2k alone. Such a versatile piece even in yellow gold. Congratulations!
I have the large steel Santos and large LC YG Quartz. This is definitely the highest on my list before a 36 MM day date, champagne Diamond dial. Congratulations! Watch always reminds me of Michael Douglas in “Wall Street”.
Congratulations 🎉 we often don’t allow ourselves to enjoy the fruits of our labor due to fear so bravo to you for not being that person. One life to live!!!
Love your videos!!! I went through a similar thought process when picking out a new watch at Cartier but ended up going with the Santos Dumont instead since it’s a little smaller. The all gold of your watch is insaaaane! ENJOY! :)
I love watching videos like this because I could never afford to buy this stuff in my lifetime. You're living my dream life. More blessings to you Ben!
Lovely watch, and as soon as I saw the medium on your wrist, I thought, I hope it purchased the medium and I looks great on your wrist. I too received the pouch from Cartier and was little disappointed, but it's great for my weekend trips when I need to carry any extra watch ya know. Congratulations again!
I have a Cartier santos L with a green dial and few Rolexes but when I look at my Cartier is a completely different look, looks just beautiful compared to the others. Congrats on the Gold Santos, such a class piece👌🏼
The medium size is really nice and tbh the yellow gold is super nice, was so surprised it’s not listed online the last years. total Gordon gekko vibes. Such a classic design but with a modern touch. Really considering getting the skeleton.
Man, this watch is B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L. No words! Got curious about the wait you mentioned. I have a Cartier Santos 100th Anniversary Edition and I love it.
Gold wears large, the medium is perfect for 90% of people as is the case for you. The deployment on the croc strap is solid 18k gold and the strap is genuine croc, it may have changed but Cartier used to source their leather or exotic straps from Hermes. Cartier does gold so beautifully it does not look flashy but instead reeks of old money class. I am not sure with the quick release straps but Cartier offer a myriad of colours for straps, a deep great or Bordeaux would look stunning as well! It looks wonderful on your wrist, congratulations! I have several vintage Cartiers and they always get the most positive comments from other people.
I love how much effort you put into your videos. And I love the type of content you’ve been putting out! Keep it up 👏you’re honestly one of my top favorite creators already
Beautiful. I've been giving serious consideration to buying one to add to my collection. Thank you for sharing and I think I'll end up with the smaller size.
So elegant with the strap. I find that wearing a bracelet with a suit feels entirely too sporty and I prefer leather when in formalwear. I’m looking to purchase a Santos in a couple weeks. Congrats , gorgeous piece
I have wanted a Santos for a while now. This will be a gift for finishing Grad School in the Spring, if I can find one. Beautiful watch, friend. Enjoy 🎉
Ben, congratulations on getting this beautiful timepiece. I agree with you that the medium in all gold looks much better than in large. The Santos looks beautiful and elegant on your wrist. I have the blue dialed DVD bezel. Love how you can interchange the bracelet straps. All the best with this watch. I plan to go to the boutique to see if I can try the medium size in gold.
Firstly, he explained exactly why he opted for the smaller size. Secondly, this is not marketed as a ladies watch. 35 mm is larger than any previous Santos that has ever existed for men or women, with exception of the current large size. If you are insecure in your own masculinity, maybe that’s an issue you need to look into.
Thank you for your video. It really helped me decide on large versus medium. I think you did the right thing with the medium!! Keep up the great work 😊
Well done, It's a very fine watch...and looks it! I have the medium size two-tone Cartier de Santos which I wear with a Cartier navy blue croc strap and the deployant strap. It looks great and it is very refined. I give the bezel a very gentle rub now and again with a jewellers cloth to keep the micro scratches in check....but it is not a daily wearer for me. Your gold metal deployment clasp is 18ct gold...as is the remainder of the watch. A success story!
Dude! I just picked up my brand new Santos yellow gold a few hours ago. They gave me the bottle of the champagne to take with me. I wish they would have also served me a bottle in the store. I got the Large but for me its not too big and gaudy. I'm 6'2" and fit with thin wrists but still it doesn't look overly huge on me. Its my 1st solid gold watch and it does feel heavy. I think the weight will take a little getting used to. Im a little paranoid about banging it and scratching it, but I know thats inevitable. Now I need to find somewhere fancy to go to wear it.
Great choice. I prefer the more elegant and dressy Santos-Dumont collection for precious metals, but there’s no lying this one is a stunner of a solid gold sports leaning model.
I follow you on TikTok and am genuinely surprised with how chill and down to earth you seem. Guess there’s a stigma of people that enjoy luxury items and showcase them. The silver Santos is on my must buy list for this year.
OMG I WANT TO GET THAT EXACT ONE FOR MY BUSINESS PARTNER, I THINK ITS LIKE 32K? USD DO YOU LIKE HOW IT FEELS ON? AND BECAUSE ITS GOLD HAVE YOU GOTTON SCRATCHED ON IT EASY?
Totally agree with your choice of the medium in gold. It looks beautiful and proportional without screaming "LOOK, BLING!!!" It'll look wonderful with both everyday and formal wear. Congratulations!

I’m from Brazil and it’s so cool to know that Cartier has this watch based on the history of Santos Dumont. So proud!

lol
The watch is beautiful. I agree the smaller size in gold looks better on your wrist.
I love that you shoot your videos in 4K. So many other content creators only record in 1080p and you can easily keep my attention by having high quality videos.
so glad you noticed! I love the quality...
I also like 4K videos.
Others do it too. At least the ones I’ve stumbled on . At work I’m listening / occasionally glance
The Cartier Santos is such a beautiful watch. I like the gold and two tone (gold and silver) in the medium size.

Can you do a video of you talking about your business, how did you start, why, and so on ?
I agree, large for stainless steel more casual. In gold definitely medium, more classy. Good choice.
The Cartier Santos is beautiful! The two tone is my everyday watch. Congratulations! ☺
Congratulations 🎉 we often don’t allow ourselves to enjoy the fruits of our labor due to fear so bravo to you for not being that person. One life to live!!!
The watch is impeccable! Absolutely agree on the medium size, it forms and sits on your wrist better. Really beautiful watch congratulations!

Beautiful watch. Thank you for taking us with you. Congrats!
I love watching videos like this because I could never afford to buy this stuff in my lifetime. You're living my dream life. More blessings to you Ben!
@@11beebee I don't think I will ever get to realize that dream but thank you for your encouragement.
Absolute class. Congratulations. Is it only in white dial color?
Lovely watch, and as soon as I saw the medium on your wrist, I thought, I hope it purchased the medium and I looks great on your wrist. I too received the pouch from Cartier and was little disappointed, but it's great for my weekend trips when I need to carry any extra watch ya know. Congratulations again!
Love this! It’s beautiful! Been after a santos for a bit! Hopefully pulling the trigger soon! 🎉 congratulations!
I have a Cartier santos L with a green dial and few Rolexes but when I look at my Cartier is a completely different look, looks just beautiful compared to the others. Congrats on the Gold Santos, such a class piece👌🏼
Absolutely love the coat you are wearing! and the MoMacoco bag !
The medium size is really nice and tbh the yellow gold is super nice, was so surprised it’s not listed online the last years. total Gordon gekko vibes. Such a classic design but with a modern touch. Really considering getting the skeleton.

Im always happy to see people reaching their goals! Sending love from Brazil ( sorry bout my englsh)
Beautiful Watch - classy and timeless

glad you picked the medium, looks great!
Great choice on the medium size. It is definitely more balanced especially on wrist size under 7 1/2. Cheers
what lens are you using to where the focus is so instant? Amazing camerawork in these videos
Stunning watch! 😍 The stainless steel santos is on my wishlist this year for my 30th in December!
Thank you! That's an amazing gift for your 30th
I truly love this watch and you got the perfect size
I love how much effort you put into your videos. And I love the type of content you’ve been putting out! Keep it up 👏you’re honestly one of my top favorite creators already
I think the soft red pouch is good for travelling. The hard red case is good for home. When in a suitcase, the pouch occupies less space.
the MoMcoco would be super cute during the fall with a nude or tan or even tonal outfit! i’m thinking a tan wool coat with that bag!!
HOW you've become a fave in like 2 weeks is CRAZY! Now, I'm over here wanting and needing a new video like a dope fiend!!!!!
Beautiful. I've been giving serious consideration to buying one to add to my collection. Thank you for sharing and I think I'll end up with the smaller size.
You’ve been pumping out great content! Can you do a beginners mens luxury starter kit video
So elegant with the strap. I find that wearing a bracelet with a suit feels entirely too sporty and I prefer leather when in formalwear. I’m looking to purchase a Santos in a couple weeks. Congrats , gorgeous piece
I love Cartier, so timeless, elegant and classy. I own the Tank and Ballon Bleu. Beautiful. Look after this, as I am sure you will.
I have wanted a Santos for a while now. This will be a gift for finishing Grad School in the Spring, if I can find one. Beautiful watch, friend. Enjoy 🎉
Definitely get the white face if looking for one I have the blue and it’s so hard to tell the time depending on the angle of the watch
I'd be curious what the weight of the watch with all it's links is ? Any chance you'd know ? Thanks
I'm confident Cartier included a real alligator leather strap haha, not an embossed one. They make wonderful straps
great video, congrats on the watch mate. camera quality is insane.
It always amazes me how much beauty and precision are added to the parts of amzwatch's watch 99% of people will never see.
Congrats. Love Cartier watches. I've owned several and loved them.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us!
❤ Fabulous! I have the large one..next on my list is the vintage Tank Anglaise in gold!
Medium was 100 percent the right choice
Ben, congratulations on getting this beautiful timepiece. I agree with you that the medium in all gold looks much better than in large. The Santos looks beautiful and elegant on your wrist. I have the blue dialed DVD bezel. Love how you can interchange the bracelet straps. All the best with this watch. I plan to go to the boutique to see if I can try the medium size in gold.
Sorry…I have the PVD bezel….
I think the large worked on you but still looked garish, yellow gold medium was *chef's kiss*
Thanks for bring us along with you, I love your video. and congratulations🙂
I came for the watch but didn’t even notice it after I noticed the CUTIE in the background!!!🥰
Another great vid and that's a very beautiful watch. The medium looks better indeed.
Glad to see the store gave you the “Club Level” experience. Very nice touch.
I think becase the post is four months old. But in Dubai it’s available for AED 124,000. Which is around $ 34,000
Beautiful. I have the Santos 100 in yellow gold in the medium, but only on the crocodile strap.
I got the same YG Cartier Santos in medium size last June. I really love it.
OMG! My Dream Watch! Looks AMAZING!
Why did you get the ladies size?
Firstly, he explained exactly why he opted for the smaller size. Secondly, this is not marketed as a ladies watch. 35 mm is larger than any previous Santos that has ever existed for men or women, with exception of the current large size. If you are insecure in your own masculinity, maybe that’s an issue you need to look into.
Damn that watch is nice! Perfect medium size too.
hello! if you dont mind me asking, where is the art work you have behind your sofa? thanks
Thank you for your video. It really helped me decide on large versus medium. I think you did the right thing with the medium!! Keep up the great work 😊
Santos Gold is the most elegant watch on earth. You made it handsome. Congratulations 👏
Amazing video, Ben! Congratulations on your new achievement!
Cheers from Brazil!
Well done, It's a very fine watch...and looks it! I have the medium size two-tone Cartier de Santos which I wear with a Cartier navy blue croc strap and the deployant strap.
It looks great and it is very refined. I give the bezel a very gentle rub now and again with a jewellers cloth to keep the micro scratches in check....but it is not a daily wearer for me.
Your gold metal deployment clasp is 18ct gold...as is the remainder of the watch.
A success story!
Another great video! Congratulations on your watch, Ben! It’s beautiful. I really love it in the croc leather. 😍🎉
Glad you like it! Thank you
Congratulations. Gorgeous piece. I have it rose gold and bought the Cartier red strap.
Hey can I check what's the gold bracelet model u are wearing . Where you get it from
Dude! I just picked up my brand new Santos yellow gold a few hours ago. They gave me the bottle of the champagne to take with me. I wish they would have also served me a bottle in the store. I got the Large but for me its not too big and gaudy. I'm 6'2" and fit with thin wrists but still it doesn't look overly huge on me. Its my 1st solid gold watch and it does feel heavy. I think the weight will take a little getting used to. Im a little paranoid about banging it and scratching it, but I know thats inevitable. Now I need to find somewhere fancy to go to wear it.
The Yellow-gold looks so gorgeous.
Great choice. I prefer the more elegant and dressy Santos-Dumont collection for precious metals, but there’s no lying this one is a stunner of a solid gold sports leaning model.
Why don't you ask to bum him then, fanboy?
Congratulations, a beautiful watch! Love the leather strap! The dog is cute too ❤
Love your watch. Proportions are perfect. Congratulations. I have the tank but someday who knows, perhaps a Santos? Thank you for sharing.
Totally agree that medium is best with full gold, bigger is overpowering.
Bro the watch is SICK... Also your content. Keep it up
I love it, congrats!❤️
🎉 congrats!! Beautiful watch!! Love your content, decor ideas of you helped me with my house, greetings from México.
Stunning watch and smart choice picking the medium size, congrats!🍾
Beautiful watch. I love Santos in gold.
Looking forward for wear and tear of this watch soon ❤
Idc what you do but keep doing what youre doing. Your videos motivates me. Thanks for making them
Why don't you ask to bum him then, fanboy?
Congrats man!! That’s crazy!
Do you have a video on luggage?
Was thinking about picking up the stainless steel model. Do you find that it scratches easily?
It is notorious for being a scratch magnet (unless perhaps if really looked after). Most people who own it accept scratches as an inevitability
Yay! New video! Which Sony camera do you use?
Sony ZV-E1
Hi Ben, love your new watch. You are right you definitely selected the right size. Wonderful family heirloom 👍
For the price I’m a Rolex fan (Daytona or day date) but the santos is beautiful.. medium over large any day. Great purchase. Looks great.
I follow you on TikTok and am genuinely surprised with how chill and down to earth you seem. Guess there’s a stigma of people that enjoy luxury items and showcase them.
The silver Santos is on my must buy list for this year.
The Medium is just so classy
I absolutely love my Santos congrats
The leather strap gold combo is the best!!!
The watch is Beautiful, especially ❤ the brown watch band and your doggie is Adorable 😘
Soft pouch to go for I have santos and Tank. I use these pouches while travelling . Keep it up Enjoy Good life👍 . from London England 🏴
OMG I WANT TO GET THAT EXACT ONE FOR MY BUSINESS PARTNER, I THINK ITS LIKE 32K? USD DO YOU LIKE HOW IT FEELS ON? AND BECAUSE ITS GOLD HAVE YOU GOTTON SCRATCHED ON IT EASY?
As much as i love the strap version. It's the gold on gold bracelet for me. 😍
100% agree on the size.
No matter the appearance or the metal parts of the *niceshopx* I believe that as long as you are not a practitioner, you will never see any difference
That is a beautiful piece. Congratulations!
Hi mate what camera you using
Congratulations! It’s beautiful 🤩
