1990s Cartier Santos Galbée moonphase ref. 119902

Steel & gold | Quartz | 24.0mm

Sale price€4.600,00

The Story behind the Cartier Santos is starting in 1906, when the crowd saw the aviator Santos-Dumont extract himself from his 14 bis airplane while checking his watch to see if he had just broken a record. 2 years earlier Louis Cartier had created the Santos watch to mark his friendship with the eponymous aviator. Its wish was granted: he could read the time in full flight.

There are many variants of the Cartier Santos, still in production since the 80s and you can always find the one for you. This example is a reference 119902 with moonphase, a quite rare iteration of this iconic model. It comes full set, with box, papers and setting pin.

Cartier

Founded in 1847 by Louis-François Cartier in Paris, Cartier became renowned for its luxury craftsmanship. The brand revolutionized watchmaking in 1904 with the Santos, one of the first wristwatches designed specifically for men. The Tank, introduced in 1917, became another iconic design, offering both functionality and elegance. Cartier’s commitment to both artistry and technical precision has made it a prominent name in fine watchmaking.

Over the decades, Cartier has become a symbol of refined taste and style, with its watches embodying sophistication, elegance, and timeless appeal. The brand’s bold designs, often incorporating unusual shapes and precious materials, have made Cartier a favorite among royalty, celebrities, and discerning collectors. Today, Cartier continues to create exquisite timepieces that combine cutting-edge technology with classic elegance, maintaining its status as one of the world’s most prestigious watchmakers.
