29mm is the perfect size in a Galbee for my wife, who has a small wrist. I bought her one, a quartz version, for Xmas and she absolutely loves it! Why quartz. Well, she hates setting and resetting her watches and couldn’t care less if it’s quartz. Because the watch was discontinued years ago and I was looking for a pristine example, it took me 6 months to source one. I own a Cartier de Santos (medium ) and it’s simply perfect. I understand your addiction to Cartier, they are wonderful watches!
@BrittPearceWatches Жыл бұрын
Whaaat! That’s so impressive you were able to source a pristine model! 😱💕💕💕 I’m sooo glad she loves it. WHAT A WATCH! And you know, I’m a big quartz sympathetizer. In the ladies watch world, it’s a lot harder to find mechanical watches. 😅 and I think quartz has its place! I’m sooo glad she’s loving her watch!

Shout out to both of you, I have been looking for this timeless treasure for ages. However, since I stay in the Asian region, it makes it extra challenging for me to find a good source. Could you both shed some light perhaps some trustful sources from where I can get my hands on this beauty!! FYI: Call me old fashioned but definitely going for the vintage version 🙂
@rickyromano6659 Жыл бұрын
Such a beautiful watch. I hear people knock Cartier sometimes for being a "jeweler" and not a "true watch maker" which to me is silly. Their skeletons are second to none, so to is their history and contributions to watch making. That combined with being the "jeweler of kings" understanding ascetics like they do, they have perfect proportions, timeless elegant designs, and a near perfect wearing experience. The Santos and the tank in my opinion, are two of the best designs ever created.

The most important thing is how it looks plus how it looks on you. ETA movements are not just ok. They are excellent. There is nothing wrong with standardized design. ETA movements are reliable and accurate, lacking only that “cachet” of “the NAME” (the ultimate in “form” over function.) Manufacture calibers are nice, but very expensive. Not only to purchase, but to service. ETA movements cost hundreds to service. Manufacture movements cost thousands to service. Plus, that dial on the Galbee is stunning! Far more beautiful than the Santos. And the size works well for you. I hope you buy one! Besides, a “Gringa-Cartier” association is far more obvious and makes far more sense than “Gringa-Rolex.” Trust me. ⌚️😎

The 29mm size is truly for any gender and wrist size. Your nitpick about the legibility in the dial is why I'm going for the Blue Romans on that almost parchment looking dial in the all steel model. Still, the Guilloche dial and gold Romans on the one you're presenting is giving me second thoughts. Best continued recovery to you!
