Cartier - Santos - Blue Dial - SS Strap

A faithful 1:1 recreation of the Cartier Santos, featuring a deep gradient blue sunburst dial paired with a brushed stainless steel case and matching stainless steel bracelet. The dial transitions from vivid cobalt at the center to darker navy at the perimeter, creating visual depth and dynamic light reflection. Black Roman numerals are crisply printed with clean proportional spacing and consistent stroke weight, while the chemin-de-fer minute track reinforces the classical Cartier balance. Blued sword-style hands are executed with accurate profiles and provide refined harmony against the graduated blue dial. The stainless steel case preserves the Santos’ distinctive square geometry with exposed bezel screws, brushed planar surfaces, and mirror-polished bevel transitions that define its industrial elegance. The faceted crown set with a synthetic blue cabochon completes the unmistakable Santos signature. The stainless steel bracelet offers excellent articulation through its brushed flat-link construction, while polished screw heads visually echo the bezel’s mechanical aesthetic. The bracelet integrates seamlessly with Cartier’s ergonomic curvature and secures via a folding deployant clasp, ensuring a clean and modern wrist profile. Powered by a custom 1:1 automatic movement, the watch reproduces precise timekeeping and date functionality consistent with the original caliber. The date aperture at 6 o’clock features sharp typography and correct window proportions, maintaining dial symmetry and balanced presentation.
