Quick TakeThe Cartier Santos de Cartier Skeleton is a watch that doesn't just tell time, it reveals it. Its exposed mechanics are a ballet of gears and springs, showcased beneath a rose gold case that gleams like a captured sunbeam. This watch is not for the shy; it's a statement piece, a conversation starter, a testament to both technical mastery and aesthetic daring. The Santos Skeleton doesn't just sit on your wrist, it commands attention, a testament to Cartier's legacy of innovation and style.

DescriptionEngineered for precision and designed for elegance,
the Santos de Cartier Skeleton watch is a horological marvel. At its heart is the caliber 9619 MC, a Manufacture mechanical movement with manual winding, comprising 138 meticulously crafted components, including 20 jewels. This movement measures 28mm x 28mm, with a thickness of 3.97mm, and oscillates at 28,800 vibrations per hour, ensuring accurate timekeeping. A power reserve of approximately 72 hours ensures reliable performance.
The skeletonized bridges of the movement not only serve a functional purpose but also contribute to the watch's aesthetic appeal by forming Roman numerals on the dial. The 18K rose gold (750/1000) case, measuring 39.7mm in width and 9.08mm in thickness, houses this intricate mechanism. A heptagonal crown, also in rose gold and set with a faceted sapphire, graces the case. Sapphire crystals on both the front and back of the watch offer protection and a glimpse into the inner workings. The watch is water-resistant up to 10 bar (approximately 100 meters/330 feet), making it suitable for a variety of situations. A rose gold bracelet with a "SmartLink" adjustment system and an additional alligator leather strap with an interchangeable deployant buckle, both featuring the "QuickSwitch" system, provide versatility and comfort.
