In 1904, Brazilian aviator Alberto Santos Dumont approached his longtime friend Louis Cartier to complain of being unable to read the time on his pocket watch whilst flying. Together they embraced the challenge and designed the Cartier Santos, often thought of as the “worlds first ever wristwatch”. The Santos timepiece challenges mainstream design, thanks to its unorthodox square shape, exposed screws and practical feeling. Over the course of a century, countless reinterpretations of this timepiece have been spotted on the world’s most famous wrists, including the Santos-Dumont and Santos de Moiselle ladies model.
