AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Timeless and iconic Cartier Santos Octagon, Reference 2966. A distinguished variant of the legendary Santos design, this timepiece captures the essence of 1980s/1990s luxury sports watch design.

The 29mm stainless steel case is defined by its namesake 18k yellow gold octagonal bezel, secured by the eight exposed screws that have become a Cartier hallmark. This two-tone "Or et Acier" (steel and gold) motif continues onto the original integrated bracelet, offering a look that is both robust and elegant.

The watch features the quintessential Cartier dial: a crisp white background, black Roman numerals, and a "chemin de fer" minute track. Time is indicated by elegant blued-steel sword hands, and a practical date window is positioned at 3 o'clock.

This automatic, self-winding reference is presented in good vintage condition. It exhibits time marks and signs of wear, as would be expected from a cherished timepiece of this era, adding to its authentic character.

Highlights:
• Condition: Good vintage condition, presenting honestly with signs of wear and "little time marks" consistent with its age. Accompanied by a Cartier presentation box.
• Case: 29mm Stainless Steel case with the distinctive 18k Yellow Gold octagonal bezel and signature screws.
• Movement: Reliable Cartier automatic, self-winding calibre.
• Bracelet: Original integrated two-tone bracelet in stainless steel with 18k yellow gold screws.
• Comes as watch only
