One of the boldest modern reinterpretations of Cartier’s 1904 aviation icon, the Santos arrives here with a graduated green dial — an emerald sunburst that fades toward near-black at the edges, framed by the collection’s unmistakable square case and exposed screws. For the collector who wants a Cartier that dresses up effortlessly yet wears like an everyday companion, the green dial draws the eye without ever trying too hard.

Presents itself in mint condition with little to no signs of wear. The graduated green sunburst dial is the star, glowing from a bright emerald center to deep, shadowed edges as the light moves. The square steel case sets brushed surfaces against high-polished beveled edges, letting the watch shift between matte and gloss with every turn of the wrist. Completing the look is the seven-sided crown set with Cartier’s signature faceted blue synthetic spinel, a small, deliberate jolt of blue against the green dial.

Functions include hours, minutes, seconds, and date. Powering it is Cartier’s automatic Caliber 1847 MC, offering roughly 40 hours of power reserve and water resistance to 100 meters. The pull-out crown handles winding when pushed in; pulled to its first position it quick-sets the date, and pulled to its second position it hacks the seconds for precise time-setting. Cartier’s QuickSwitch system swaps between the steel bracelet and green alligator strap without tools, while the SmartLink bracelet allows easy sizing by hand.

Comes as a full set, double-boxed with warranty card, green alligator strap, interchangeable steel folding buckle, adjustment tool, white tag, and instruction booklet.

Green-dial Santos references remain especially desirable among modern steel Cartier models — bold, versatile, and unmistakably current. For the collector who wants a Cartier that stands out from the crowd in a nonchalant way, this is one to secure before it’s gone.
