according to my research:
Cartier Santos watches typically use swiss movements which have different hand sizes than Japanese Miyota 9015 movements. The pinion sizes are:
- Miyota 9015:
- Hour hand: 1.50 mm
- Minute hand: 0.90 mm
- Seconds hand: 0.25 mm
- Typical Swiss ETA or Cartier (approximate, varies by model):
- Hour hand: ~1.20 mm
- Minute hand: ~0.80 mm
- Seconds hand: ~0.20 mm
These differences mean that genuine Cartier hands may either be too tight or too loose to fit the 9015 posts securely.
