Thank you for your review. I just gifted my self the Santos Medium today, i have been eyeing it for a year. Although it was cheaper earlier but i am glad i got it before it is too late! Definitely matches my interest in its Heritage and Prestige. 👏
Great review, does this watch come with a half link so you can get a good fit or are the links small enough you can anyway? Always nervous buying a watch that doesn't have micro-adjustment on the bracelet
Great Video I literally just got the Santos De Cartier Chronograph 18k gold 2 TONE W2SA0008 and I feel its the sexiest watch I've seen in a long time. And it was unavailable when I purchased I feel prices might rise due to demand. I had to do a unboxing video I was so Geeked I had to do it.
Congrats! The two tone one is also really beautiful! But I’m afraid that it‘s even more prone to scratches than other models, if you are fine with that it’s perfect!
@@davidzed7952 thanks bro that's why I went with the chronograph cause the 18k gold is brushed it has more of a textured bezel which helps hide scratches better than the large polished version.
@@nishantprakash5928 compared to bare stainless? Much tougher to scratch. But sure, it can be damaged, as can DLC with enough effort. It's a Bezel, it can easily be replaced with 8 screws. I can't say I am one that prefers to bash and patina my watches, so.....
I just ordered mine yesterday. It's arriving tomorrow, very excited. My friend who is a luxury watch enthusiast said the black bezel stands out too much and doesn't make it look classy... he was saying get the silver one
FWIW, every Cartier AD I've been in recently in the Washington DC area has had white dialed Santos models in large and medium size in stock. But only the Cartier boutique had the various blue and gray dial variants available.
Actually in Britain there seems to be no waitlist for any of them, plus you get up to 4 years interest-free credit, which may be worth it if they go up in price…
Cartier are an elite watchmaker who manufacture geneva seal pieces. They have been making watches longer than most brands. Great brand that offers a nice spread of price point and complications. Great review 🙂
@@bdegrds a great brand, I believe they created the first gentleman's wrist watch and Patel Phillipe created the first wrist watch, but was for ladies. The wrist watch that Cartier created however is the format that everybody wears today and the PP wrist watch was much more jewellery focused, like an intricate bracelet that told you the time fashioned from solid gold. Am sure that was very beautiful at the time.
It really depends tho.... it’s true they make good complications and no doubt about their history, but the entry level offerings, ones that people actually could buy, are kind of meh. Both the tank and santos at stainless steel are pretty pricey for what they are. Just an opinion.
Really? i got this exact watch brand new about a month ago for 6950 euro [about 700euro discount] from the biggest AD in my country. And this is actually my first luxury watch ever so i had nothing to show for. However i remember him showing me the blue and white dial ones to and remember him saying this was a harder version for him to come by and he didnt think he could get another one for that price especialy. Anyway hope u will find your WSSA0037 soon to and for a honest price 👌Its a great watch i have zero regrets getting one.
Cartier is on GOD Tier of ALL other watches. I have a Tank XL and am looking at the Santos Lareg with a white dial - easier to read. First tine viewer - great vid. Tku.
Why o why do some people give off about hacking seconds, who needs this. Patek, Vacheron and FP Journey say its puts unnessasary stress on the movement, which might mean less time spent back in Switzerland getting fixed.
Size wise, if it's anything like the leather straps on other larger models it will fit and I can't imagine the two being all that different in length. In terms of looks, the non-white dials definitely work on 6 inch wrists as the darker shades really tone down how big it looks on a 6 inch wrist.
Just go mine, in part thanks to this video. What sold me on it vs the gold bezel, is that while gold is more striking, the scratches would drive me nuts! As far as market value for this model, I think is a major unknown. Medium Santos in traditional design is a far safer bet...but I don't like it, looks like a ladies watch.
Cartier have always positioned themselves well in the market. They offer elegant quartz watches for those who care more about the fashion side, and finer, more expensive, mechanical timepieces. I have never understood the logic of those who beg for the opportunity to buy a Rolex at inflated prices.
I'm torn between getting one in full 18K gold or getting a stainless steel two-tone version. One is about $14,000 and the other is about $2,400 but aside from that, I still can't make up my mind because I love full gold but already have a solid 18K piece in my collection; no two-tone, though.
I said the same thing once, the only thing buying replicas and homages did for me was looking at them, wishing I would've bought the real one. If you really want a Santos maybe you can look into the small one, they retail for around 4-5k, and they're mechanical. You can save half of that and maybe get a loan and pay it off later. Either way, these watches hardly lose value so you didn't waste your money. Don't say it's out of your league dude, you can acquire anything you set your mind
It looks very nice on screen not having seen it in real life. The only disappointment is the crown has a synthetic jewel rather than a real one, which for that price it should be.
Never, ever set the date when the time is at 10:00!!!! The hour should be between 14:00 or 2:00 call it as u want and 19:00 or 07:00. If you don’t you risk of damaging the internal parts.
Love the Cartier Santos! I would give it as one of the top choices for people looking for their first top tier watch. Thanks for a great review. This would be the Cartier model I would choose as well love the wearing dimensions & comfort. Two aspect that I feel will start to dominate the market moving forward after the dinner plate style watch faze we went though. Back to classics! I would say an alternative at this price point would be the Rolex Explorer. Old references can even be found cheaper at the moment. But the new 124270 would be ideal at near the same price from AD :)
I concur with the Explorer or an OP. It needs a screw-down crown for first time and 1 watch wearers. They should make the Santos with a screw-down crown.
How did you happen to get such a large discount 0.0?? I am looking at getting the white dial medium santos for myself as a grad gift but didn’t know you could get discounts!
Not a fan of this version at all. I'm considering getting a santos. It will def be the large white dial stainless steel if i do choose it! Have always loved the shape of the santos and those roman numerals
I have this exact model. The white dial large, with date. It’s amazing. I can tell you the quality it’s right there with Rolex Omega (I own Rolex and Omega). You go for it.
@@trwilliams22 oh wow did not know that! I have yet to go to a Cartier boutique as I live in a city which doesn't have one. I currently own an omega speedmaster and honestly I'm getting bored of it (don't crucify me lol). Thinking of selling it and getting a santos
Cartier should make the 'ML' version with 38.0 x 45.4 mm dimension to entertain the goldilocks 39-40mm round watch equivalent. Thanks for the vid, man.
Hi. Have you noticed if the ADLC bezel picked up scratches in your daily wear so far? I know the white dial version with the high polish stainless steel bezel picks up scratches easily…
@@toshizomac25 thanks for your feedback. This is very encouraging. I don’t plan to abuse the watch but love the idea that this watch can go from formal to outdoor, and everything in between.
I was getting the silver Large one for my wife… now this DLC version is out and it’s just pure class and sport! The fact that the DLC hardens the surface and that rubber bracelet integrates is so slick…. And then we have LUME!
@@nishantprakash5928 if you don’t look for it. Not hard to get. Especially on the grey market. Easy to get in store if you look around. It’s just a santos. It’s nothing special. Especially if it’s not gold.
Go check it out on the old Tank MC which has a display back but worse water resistance at 30m. The movement really isn’t something to show off fairly basic looking. So to get to 100m they put on a metal caseback. I guess with Cartier you are paying for brand prestige and something a little different and artistic. The alternative is a movement powerhouse like Omega or best in class for mass production Rolex. Cartier is for guys who want something a little different in a bigger collection.
Let me give the bad points about this model just to balance the view as I own one and these point have bugged me over time. 1) The crown is not screw down. This is a no go for a 'sports' watch because there is no water resistance when you swim/heavy rain. 2) The bracelet over time will have gunk going into the links (it happens from sweat and skin), and this will clog up the quick link adjustment, risking it not popping out when you want it to. 3) The movement accuracy is slightly questionable, and a 42h power reserve is really short. This makes it feel like a fashion watch, and in my humble opinion i would pay $4000 because this watch looks great..... but above that I would consider the moonwatch/seamaster/oyster perpetural because they just are better.
I am going to buy the Santos in blue as an engagement watch because it is perfect in combination with the engagement ringt but I have to agree to your points mentioned. I recently bought a Breitling which has 500m water resistance, the famous B01 movement, it is a chrono (which always are more expensive), it is COSC certified, 70h power reserve for 5000€. On the other hand there is the Santos which got a price increase to 7600 so almost 8k for only 100m water resistance, 42h power reserve, no chrono, no COSC certificate, no screw down crown. I mean it is beautiful and all and I get it that you have to spend some extra bucks on the name but serious Cartier has to get their shit together this pricing is ridiculous.
@@jackdaniels8030 Actually I think the pricing is fine IF they can fix the simple problems here 1)Screw down crown 2)movement accuracy + power reserve. Afterall, pricing is very much dictated by brand rather than the actual workmanship. So fine, i'll pay you Cartier.. just fix the small bugs. haha
Water resistance is not dependent solely on a screw down crown - they have internal mechanisms which make give it this water resistance. Having this screw down would increase its performance but if you intend to shower or swim in a pool without going to depths it would be fine
Yeah, if you don't dive, there is no need for a screw down crown. 42 hr reserve is perfectly fine with thinner watches, and it's good enough for plenty of other fine watches. 1847MC is one of the best and thinnest movements in the game, just read about it. The complaint about the bracelet is...just have it cleaned by jewelry, like you do with any good bracelet.
I used to be a thin watch guy but lately I've been finding that certain watches need to wear a bit thicker, depending on its case design. If the case is broken up like the way Omega does it, then thicker might actually be better. But if its slab sided like Tudor, then thicker is not better.
Yes definitelyy! some watches have to be thicker! I just like the fact that this watch is so unusually thin, because the majority of watches that I see today are bit thicker
@@davidzed7952 Its a beautiful watch, especially the version you have on. I had no idea a black bezel version existed until now. The Santos is suddenly on my short list of watches to get next.
First watch maker to produce a commercially available men’s wrist watch. They invented the sports watch and the dress watch. The tank, santos and cintree models in their current line up have been there for over 100 years and thirty years before any current Rolex models and their high horological pieces are more advanced than anything AP or Patek do, but yeah, just a “jewellery brand”.
I like this watch. Cheers
It's a great watch. I own the white dial version but would love to own the black ADLC version.
Thank you for your review. I just gifted my self the Santos Medium today, i have been eyeing it for a year. Although it was cheaper earlier but i am glad i got it before it is too late! Definitely matches my interest in its Heritage and Prestige. 👏
Congrats on the Santos! Enjoy! 👍
Did Alberto ask Cartier to add the Cabochon Stone to the Crown of the Santos or was Louis playing King XVIII at the time?
I need this!
Great review, does this watch come with a half link so you can get a good fit or are the links small enough you can anyway? Always nervous buying a watch that doesn't have micro-adjustment on the bracelet
Wish there was a mid size version
How long does the lume last on this watch?
How do you feel about the santos medium paved with diamonds
I like it, but i prefer the larger size
Great Video I literally just got the Santos De Cartier Chronograph 18k gold 2 TONE W2SA0008 and I feel its the sexiest watch I've seen in a long time. And it was unavailable when I purchased I feel prices might rise due to demand. I had to do a unboxing video I was so Geeked I had to do it.
Congrats! The two tone one is also really beautiful! But I’m afraid that it‘s even more prone to scratches than other models, if you are fine with that it’s perfect!
@@davidzed7952 thanks bro that's why I went with the chronograph cause the 18k gold is brushed it has more of a textured bezel which helps hide scratches better than the large polished version.
Went in to buy an ADLC... walked out with a WSSA0047.
The 2022 blue versions are STUNNING in person.
Nice! Haven‘t seen the new one, but will definitely check it out when I get the chance to!
Doesn't PVD scratch easily?
And it ages awfully
@@nishantprakash5928 compared to bare stainless? Much tougher to scratch.
But sure, it can be damaged, as can DLC with enough effort. It's a Bezel, it can easily be replaced with 8 screws.
I can't say I am one that prefers to bash and patina my watches, so.....
@@ExotechEngineering oh. Good for you then.
Cheers
@@ExotechEngineering you got the black DLC? I'm still hesitant to get it because of the scratche issues, saw a silver one yesterday with bad scratches
It's like listening to Glenn Sturgis (from Superstore) reviewing a watch.
What is this specific reference
I just ordered mine yesterday. It's arriving tomorrow, very excited. My friend who is a luxury watch enthusiast said the black bezel stands out too much and doesn't make it look classy... he was saying get the silver one

Agreed Cartier is a real watch through and through. I’m Debating buying a skeleton Santos at the moment.
Wow the skeleton santos is so cool, but too expensive IMO
Lol it’s not a watch. It’s for watch wannabes
@@peterk814It's literally the first real wristwatch ever created 🤡
Black Datejust 41 or Black Santons ?

Why o why do some people give off about hacking seconds, who needs this. Patek, Vacheron and FP Journey say its puts unnessasary stress on the movement, which might mean less time spent back in Switzerland getting fixed.
If I would just have 7k laying around i would actually consider getting one, but rather the new version with blue dlc bezel and white dial.
Great watch. Great review. Thank you!
Thanks for watching!
I wish they made these in a medium.
Yeah, they tend to designate the medium to women and leave out these cool designs
Santos or navitimer???
Oh this is good - thank you!
Great video. Thanks.

Another 🤡 that knows absolutely nothing about watches
Subpar watch. Not worth the money 💰 you can walk into any Cartier store and buy one. There is no shortage
So a watch is only good if there is a shortage? Congratulations you have fallen for hype and marketing tricks.
In house movement that is totally not reliable. Cartier should have kept on getting the top quality movements from Jaeger-LeCoultre.
