In 1904, Louis Cartier created the Santos for his friend Alberto Santos-Dumont, a Brazilian aviator who needed to check the time while keeping both hands on the controls. That watch didn’t just solve a problem — it invented a category. The Tank followed in 1917, inspired by the profile of Renault tanks on the Western Front. More than a century later, both designs remain in production, virtually unchanged. That is the power of Cartier’s design language: so fundamentally right that time cannot improve upon it.
