Cartier Santos Carré Full set from 1998

Cartier Santos Carrée 2961

A proper neo-vintage icon.

Offered here is a mint condition Cartier Santos Carrée ref. 2961 featuring the sought-after white Roman numeral dial, preserved in remarkably sharp and unpolished condition. Coming as a complete set with its original box and papers, this example is further distinguished by its desirable MK1 bracelet configuration and late 1998 production year.

The Santos Carrée remains one of the purest executions of the classic Santos design language — compact proportions, exposed screws, integrated bracelet architecture, and unmistakable 1980s–1990s Cartier elegance. Finding an honest, untouched example with sharp case geometry and a tight bracelet is becoming increasingly difficult.

The watch is fitted with its original automatic movement and retains the crisp finishing collectors look for today. The white dial contrasts beautifully against the steel and yellow gold case, giving the watch the unmistakable understated luxury that made the Santos a design icon.

A superb collector-grade example equally suited for daily wear or long-term collection.
