Introducing The Cartier Santos 100 Carbon and Ballon Bleu Carbon Replica

The Santos 100 and Ballon Bleu Replica watches, two watchmaking icons by Cartier Mens Replica, are now available in two new steel versions with an ADLC (Amorphous Diamond-Like Carbon) coating for a casual and modern look.

The deep charcoal colour creates a nice contrast with the white Roman numerals and rail-track, the sword-shaped steel hour and minute hands treated with luminescent material and the thin red hand indicating the seconds. Both models feature the typical blue stone of the winding crown, a distinctive trait of Cartier Best Swiss Time Replica.

The Santos 100 Carbon and Ballon Bleu Carbon are powered by the automatic 1847 MC Manufacture movement beating at a frequency of 4 Hz (28,800 vph) and offering a power reserve of 42 hours.

The case dimensions of the Santos 100 Carbon are 51.1 mm x 41.3 mm while the Ballon Bleu Carbon has a diameter of 42 mm. The first is water resistant to 100 metres / 330 feet while the second to 30 metres / 100 feet.

Louis Cartier created the Santos watch in 1904 as a tribute to his friend and aviator Alberto Santos Dumont. In 2004, the Santos 100 model marked the centenary of the watch. The Ballon Bleu was first introduced in 2007.
