1904, Louis Cartier granted the wish of the famous Brazilian aviator Alberto Santos Dumont: to be able to tell time while flying. The birth of one of the first ever wristwatches sealed the bonds of friendship between these two pioneers. The rounded angles of the dial, the seamless curve of the horns, and the exposed screws made for an iconic watch that would inspire countless reinterpretations.

A 1847 MC automatic movement gives the rugged look a sense of style and class, set off by the silver opaline roman dial and sapphire crystal. The synthetic spinel in the crown adds a splash of colour to the brushed steel case.
