This year, the Santos de Cartier is updated with a refreshing blue PVD bezel, along with a second option coming in a matching tonal-blue dial as well. Both timepieces are powered by the Manufacture mechanical movement with automatic winding 1847 MC, and they are sold together with two complementary straps in rubber and steel.

This multi-purpose strap is also a refreshing change, thanks to their QuickSwitch system, allowing you to switch up the look between a casual and formal style with ease. The metallic bracelets also come with the SmartLink self-fitting technology, a cool touch that adjusts to your wrists without the need for any fancy tools.

Priced at SGD11,000, the Santos de Cartier will come in the large model which measures 47.5 mm by 39.8 mm. Perfect for those who love a cool blue, it’s time you add this sleek and stylish timepiece to your wish list for the year, before it all gets snapped up on launch day.
