The Santos 100 Squelette watch from the jewellery and watchmaker Cartier boggles the audience’s imagination with its total transparency.The dial of the Cartier extraordinary timepiece indicates the time in a very special manner. It is fitted with conventional hands, dressed in blue.
They travel, however, over Roman numerals, represented by bridges, artfully incorporated into a hand-wound mechanical skeletonized movement - calibre 9611 MC.
Graced with Haute Horlogerie finishing, it oscillates at the rate of 28, 800 vibrations per hour. Equipped with two barrels, the caliber provides a 72-hour power reserve.
Composed of 138 meticulously hand-made individual parts, the remarkable movement can be seen through two sapphire crystals.
The watch wearer can admire its beveled bridges and mainplate, satin brushed sides as well as circular-grained wheels.
The entire mechanism is enclosed in a generously sized palladium case, which boasts a diameter of 47 mm. The water-resistance of the new Santos 100 Squelette watch is assured down to 30 meters.
The final touch is provided by a high quality leather strap, which wraps itself around the wearer’s wrist with incomparable comfort.
The issue of the new Cartier watch is strictly limited to 100 pieces.
