The Cartier Santos de Cartier WSSA0039 is a striking update to a historic classic, embodying the original spirit of adventure that defined Louis Cartier’s 1904 design for aviator Alberto Santos-Dumont. Its modern proportions—47.5 mm by 39.8 mm—bring a commanding wrist presence, balanced by Cartier’s refined detailing and precision craftsmanship.
Crafted in stainless steel with a distinctive square case and screw-adorned bezel, the WSSA0039 houses the in-house 1847 MC automatic movement, offering around 40 hours of power reserve. A sapphire crystal covers the dial, which though not specified in this listing, is typically rendered in silvered opaline with Roman numerals and blued-steel sword hands.
This model features a black crown accent and is water-resistant up to 100 meters, blending sport functionality with urban sophistication. The stainless steel bracelet includes Cartier’s SmartLink and QuickSwitch systems for easy adjustment and versatility, ensuring a perfect fit whether worn casually or for formal occasions.
With its elegant design and practical features, the Santos de Cartier WSSA0039 remains a bold expression of heritage and innovation—ideal for those who value timeless aesthetics with a modern edge.
