The Cartier Santos Dumont XL Boasts a Mechanical Movement
Michael Hemsworth — April 24, 2020 — Fashion
The Cartier Santos Dumont XL has been unveiled by the jewelry brand as its latest version of the iconic namesake timepiece that is characterized by its oversized design and a few other updates.
The timepiece is designed with men with larger wrists in mind and measures in a 46.6mm lug-to-lug, but still maintains a very slim profile at just 7.5mm in thickness. The watch now features a mechanical movement in the form of the 430 MC, which is further supported by a 38 hour power reserve.
The Cartier Santos Dumont XL comes in variety of options including pink gold, pink gold and steel and steel with gray alligator leather, black alligator leather and navy blue alligator leather straps, respectively. The crown is accented by a cabochon for a pop of blue color that matches the watch's hands.
