The Cartier Santos is a most important piece in the watch history as it is considered as the first wristwatch.

It was made in 1904 by Louis Cartier for this friend Alberto Santos-Dumont, a Brazilian aviator.

He requested a timepiece that he could check without having to take off his hands from the controls.

Since then, there has been several generations of Santos models, Cartier continuously adapting this iconic model to the contemporary tastes while preserving the DNA of the original design.

In 2018, at the SIHH, Cartier unveiled not only one, but twelve models of the new Santos!

They were made in two sizes: medium and large. Among these releases, the reference 4072 quickly became the focus point of the watch community.

Indeed, its large size, strong yet elegant proportions, its bracelet in the pure respect of Santos aesthetic while equipped with the very handy QuickSwitch and its reliable automatic calibre 1847MC featuring central seconds and date indication, made it the perfect contemporary casual watch.

Still in the pursuit to offer its demanding clients the very best and refined pieces, Cartier launched the Large Santos with a new green dial in 2023.

The result is remarkable, as the present lot demonstrates it.
