The Cartier Santos is a horological icon. The distinct case design, Roman Numeral dial, 'screw' accented bezel and characteristic bracelet all being distinguishing features that make it unmistakable when being worn, commanding a fantastic wrist presence.

As for the case shape - this is one of the earlier Santos examples named the 'Santos Carree' which is defined by more prominent lugs, as it is the precursor to the 'Galbee' styling. This piece of course has the original deployant clasp and bracelet, it has a beautifully crisp white dial, with contrasting blue hands and matching cabochon. It is also worth noting this is the more desirable and expensive two tone version, not to mention the automatic movement that brings with it the silky smooth sweep second hand. 

 However, the rarity doesn't stop there; this is a highly unusual configuration of the Santos, distinguished by the unique bracelet design; known as the ‘Santos Godrons'

This Cartier is for a watch aficionado with an eye for detail and subtle class. Most Cartier pieces blur the lines between art, jewellery and horology. No other Swiss brand would be bold enough to design & release a bracelet like this. In the current collectors market, pieces with unique characteristics are always in high demand as people look for what other's can't get - this encapsulates that perfectly.  

To find a Santos Godrons in a condition such as this with original boxes and papers is unbelievably rare, the added cherry on top is this piece has just had a full service at Cartier Old Bond Street and will come with a 2 year manufacturers warranty for the buyers piece of mind. This is a one of a kind example - remarkable considering it's from 1984 with the original box and card. You will not find another example like this anywhere.
