More information
The Cartier Santos, initially crafted for Brazilian aviator Alberto Santos-Dumont, was introduced in 1911 by Louis Cartier himself. The innovative design allowed Santos-Dumont to check the time while in the air without the need to operate a pocket watch manually. It is widely considered to be the first men's wristwatch and the first pilot's wristwatch, predating World War I and the subsequent shift from pocket watches to wristwatches.
