Design & Construction
The Santos Galbée represents Cartier's elegant interpretation of the iconic Santos design with gracefully curved case sides that contour to the wrist. The two-tone construction combines brushed stainless steel case with a polished 18K yellow gold bezel, creating a classic luxury aesthetic. White guilloche dial features traditional Cartier Roman numerals with blued steel hands. The blue sapphire cabochon crown adds signature Cartier detailing. Original black textured leather strap with contrasting stitching complements the formal design while the stainless steel buckle ensures secure wearing.
About The Santos Galbée
The Santos Galbée debuted in 1987 as Cartier's refined evolution of the Santos design, featuring gentler curves and slimmer proportions suited for dress watch occasions. The name "Galbée" derives from French meaning curved or contoured, referencing the case's ergonomic shape. This particular example celebrates Cartier's 150th anniversary in 1997, marking the sesquicentennial of the house founded by Louis-François Cartier in 1847
