Introduced in 1904, the Cartier Santos was the first wristwatch created for men. The Cartier brand is synonymous with class.
This Santos 100 XL ADLC Chronograph is the perfect mixture of ruggedness and elegance. This is a watch for men that want something tougher out of their Cartier.
ADLC stands for amorphous diamond-like carbon. It is Cartier's proprietary coating that is stronger and more robust than traditional PVD coatings.
This piece will come with both outer and inner boxes, instructional and warranty booklets, Cartier DVD, and hang tags.
At 54.9 mm x 46.55 mm x 18.22 mm, this is a weighty piece most at home on large wrists. For those that like larger pieces, you will be very happy. It makes a bold statement, but is not overly flashy.
The piece has been worn and is in overall good condition with moderate superficial scratching to the titanium bezel. There are a few minor dings in the bezel from normal wear. There is minor wear to the ADLC coating on the top right lug. The crystal and dial are flawless. The clasp has desk dive scratches on it as well. All blemishes have been intentionally dramatized by the photography. This piece has been pre loved, but presents well.
