Why this is the Santos You Want | Cartier Santos Dumont

I keep going back and forth on whether the Santos De Cartier is a sports watch, that's when I discovered the Santos Dumont, a more elegant take on the Santos that to me fully embraces what modern day Cartier represents, but with a great historical reference that dates back to the turn of the century. Let me tell you why this is actually the Santos you want!

[@anthonysmith2982]

Well said.

[@EverydayWatchGuy]

I appreciate that you drew the parallels between having a Quartz movement last 6 years (power reserve) and the service interval of a mechanical timepiece. This Cartier seems like a great grab-and-go watch!

[@WatchCrunchOfficial]

Absolutely, I can handle a battery change twice a decade ;)

[@sk190]

True. But I don’t service a mechanical watch until it basically stops working. My watchmaker said - repairs cost the same as a service - so wait until it breaks before servicing

[@paulb9453]

As Mary Quant once said “if a woman is badly dressed, you remember the dress, when a woman is impeccably dressed, you remember the woman”. Watches and people are exactly the same, you wear watches with effortless class, but many owner-collectors of high-end watches don’t do the watches justice. Kudos mate, kudos.

This review has pulled the trigger for me! Bought the Large model in full steel. I tried the gold bezel too, but couldn’t explain the 2000 extra euro’s for only a gold bezel and I think the steel is more versatile anyways. I absolutely love it. Thanks for your amazing review on this Dumont.

Hi Max, anything made by Cartier is always elegant and classy. They always do a great design job. By the way, several years ago I visited the little house Santos Dumont had in Petropolis, Brazil. A place full of history. There were pictures of the flimsy wood and fabric planes he built. Those were times of pioneering and brave men indeed. Well deserved that Cartier has dedicated a watch to him. Thank you for the video!

[@WatchCrunchOfficial]

Very cool Noel! Can you imagine climbing into a plane you built out of wood and getting it in the air? What a brave dandy 😉

[@johnstone8518]

Finally someone who gives a proper review.. I saw this watch and I’ll buy it now because of your review

Max, I really enjoy your reviews! Straightforward with insightful comments that transcend just a point by point review. I do love the comment on how Sports watches are defined across a broad spectrum. Personally this style of Watch has never really pegged my interest meter but as I’ve learned more of the history on Cartier Watches I am becoming a fan. Thanks for the information that is so beautifully presented.

[@jramz8724]

Thanks for the video, excellent review on the Santos Dumont and the difference between the Sport Watch and a Dress Watch. I love the mechanical watch and I do collect mechanical watches, including Cartier’s however, I chose the Santos Dumont Large model not only because of size, Because of the autonomy quartz movement of ~ 6 years. This a great achievement for Cartier on improving the quartz technology to achieve such a long power reserve and even more on these day with other models. Some of the mechanical watches power reserve are limited ( 36-48 hours), specially, when your time is limited and you need to grab and go the watch back to work after the weekend. Again, I love mechanical watches and I enjoyed but , this model is a perfect example of classic, simplicity, craftsmanship and history, a watch that symbolize the first wrist watch for Aviators since 1904 by Cartier and also, a practical timepiece with such a beauty and history.

[@WatchCrunchOfficial]

Exactly! Quartz isn't all bad, just have to think about the type of quartz and if it fits the purpose of the watch. I still don't know what "high-autonomy" means though 😅

Wow, this Santos completely fixes the issues I've had with the Santos de Cartier. I'm not a huge fan of the aesthetics of the bracelet the Santos de Cartier comes on, thought it was a bit bulky and I didn't feel like spending almost 7000 euros on a watch that was really cool but just missed the mark slighty for me. This version looks sleeker with the thinner bezel and is 3000 euros cheaper?! What! The real question is going to be if I want the small or large version. Going to give my AD a call and hope they have both in stock. Thanks for the video!

I happened to be waiting for coffee recently and noticed a guy wearing a Santos. I'd not actually seen one in the metal before. Elegance is the descriptor that came to mind, and it went very well with the sort've arty buis/cas sartorial vibe the guy had. For me at 6'4“-ish with an ~ 8” wrist, elegance is not easily achieved!, my loss: a great looking (and well worn neo-vintage heirloom on this occasion) piece - if one has the frame and style to match. Maybe I should look at the XL?..

While not a mechanical watch, I think this Santos model is phenomenal! For me personally, a sports watch is a watch with a screw down crown and at least 100m of WR, but i would like to get my hands on this Cartier:)

[@17arando]

I think a screw down crown is optional for anything not dive or otherwise water focused, but I definitely prefer it. My PRX lacks the screwdown crown, but I've inadvertently taken some trips into the water and ocean with it and never had a real worry or felt I needed to stop and get out to remove it But I think if wound up dunked into the ocean with any watch with a 50m or lower rating I'd probably be actively trying to not panic and fleeing immediately back to the boat

Cartier rightfully calls it the first aviator's watch because it was the first wrist watch worn by an aviator. And it popularized wrist watches. In fact Dumont was friends with Cartier and commissioned a wristwatch so he could use both his hands to operate the plane

[@chongjiunkit3901]

Hi Max, l like your video 🙂 I went to Cartier boutique and saw a few Santos de Cartier, honestly somehow they did not impress me that much until the sales consultant brought out the Santos Dumont, it looks great and I instantly like it. I like the history and its sleek design. The only aspect of this watch which is holding me back is that the price for a quartz is rather steep. Other than high autonomy quartz with long battery life, is there any other aspects that would make the quartz used in this watch “higher quality” compared to other quartz movements?

After getting my Rolex service (which took 8 months) for a simple service and a new new crown. I got my watch back that had no issues with time to it being rolled back hourssss after just 2 weeks.

[@chrisgrieves1468]

Fantastic thought-provoking video Max! Seems a bunch of the more interesting 'tubers are watching YOU. For mine the Santos is an "everyday"/office watch, not a sports watch. Is it both, is it neither? You could say the same about a Rolex OP. Dumont knows what it is - a dress watch, and the idea of it having been to finishing school is a great one! Folks can decide for themselves about long-life quartz at this price level. Does look expensive against Tank Must XL with the same auto as the Santos Medium for less less money though.

[@roikhockenberger2790]

You might also mention that this model of Santos Dumont is among the more affordable options in the Cartier watch catalog. I personally do not mind the quartz movement because it's a very high grade of quartz movement and it has that outstanding 6-year battery life. This makes for a pick-up-and-go watch that is less formal (hence "sport") than the comparable Cartier Must Tank offerings in the catalog.
