Cartier Santos Inquiry

[thewatchboy]

Hi,

I have 6.75in (17.2cm) wrist and have been wearing a 40mm watch. It fits good.
I am not sure about Santos de Cartier.
There are two sizes medium and large.
Which size should I go for?
Can you guys show me pics and your wrist size to have a better idea please?

Thank you!

i would say go for the 40mm santos imo.

I just have a mix results haha. Would you happen to have pics of the watch on your wrist?

I had a similar dilemma, I was afraid it would wear small on my 6.75 inch wrist but I went for the 35 for a few reasons;

1. The 35 wears larger probably more like a 38/39, keep in mind it's a square watch.

​​​​​​2. Personally, I prefer the Santos without the date window. The design feels more purest and elegant. Even on the 40 I feel it feels forced, with the exception of the blue dial. Since the only options were 35 dateless or 40 with date I went 35 and I'm really glad I did.

3. Finally the 35 I feel is more versatile, and transitions seamlessly from a casual to more formal environments. It feels as appropriate with a pair of jeans and a white T as it does under the cuff on a suit.​​​ I feel no other brand strikes this balance as well as cartier.


Here's a pic, post #2 there's also more on that thread

Check out any of the TD's on the site! Make an inquiry with their sales team and off you go.

I have the GF 35mm and have nothing but great things to say about it

I would also recommend GF 35mm. Santos is more elegant without windows. Here is the list if trusted dealers
