Cartier Santos Large WSSA0048 39.8mm x 47.5mm (2022)

The Cartier Santos de Cartier WSSA0048 gives the iconic Santos design a distinctly modern, sporty edge. It features a 39.8 mm stainless‑steel “large” square case with softened angles and Cartier’s signature exposed screws. The vivid blue dial — with Roman numerals and sword‑shaped steel hands — is framed by a blue PVD‑coated steel bezel that adds a contemporary twist on the classic Santos aesthetic. Under the sapphire crystal resides Cartier’s in‑house automatic movement, the calibre 1847 MC, offering reliable daily performance. What sets this reference apart is its dual‑strap versatility: it comes with both a full steel bracelet (with SmartLink sizing) and a blue rubber strap (deployant buckle), both fitted via Cartier’s QuickSwitch system — allowing you to effortlessly swap between a refined steel look and a sport‑casual rubber feel. Water‑resistant to 100 m, the WSSA0048 balances elegance, heritage, and modern versatility, making it equally at home at a business meeting, casual outing, or travel.
