Gorgeous
Condition - Fully Cartier - 1 Year Warranty
The Octagon is a seldom seen watch in the Santos line and is
one of the affordable distinctive luxury watches. It is beautifully
styled and its eight-sided bezel is suggestive of the iconic Audemars
Piguet Royal Oak.
This ladies Octagon features a stainless steel case with 18K
bezel, classic white Roman dial with blue steel "epee" hands, sapphire
topped crown, and mechanical movement.
Unlike the quartz version of the Santos, this more desirable
mechanical example possesses an automatic movement and in a way
showcases the timeless art of traditional watch making.
The watch presents in gorgeous condition - it presents as about a 9.5
out 10. On the wrist it presents as very close to like new. It
has just been fully serviced by a Master Watchmaker.
Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. warranty on the movement
and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate
of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate.
