    Your discussion here is interesting, but you don't get into technicalities at all. The Santos is a great watch, but the Cartier calibre 1847 is essentially an ETA 2892. Nothing wrong with that, but in terms of chronometeic precision, durability, and longevity, it is inferior to a Rolex movement. In all other areas, I agree with you, the Santos is a better watch. But they were able to offer you a better watch at a similar price to a Datejust (or lower) by focusing only on the design of the case, bracelet, and dial, and not investing very much into the movement.

    Love, love, love my Santos. Thank you for telling me that you share it with your wife. I first bought the blue medium, then just last week, I fell in love with the new brown/gold, so I bought it in medium. All the while wondering if I should get the large. Have had my eye on the green dial, so I’m toying with getting my third Santos, might just pull the trigger on the green LARGE! I also bought a Rolex DateJust a couple of years ago and think it’s beautiful but I am mesmerized by the Santos, and Cartier in general. Recently bought the 35mm Pasha, also outstanding. Wonderful wide high shine bezel! May just keep the Rolex, just to have one. Although I’m a female watch enthusiast for the last approx 10 years or so, only realized within the last couple of months what I’ve been missing out by not considering Cartier. By the way, began collecting with Invicta, so I’m not scared of a larger timepiece. Invicta gives you the option of wearing it on your wrist or hanging it on the wall! lol. Glad I’ve come a long way from Invicta but that’s how I got started and still have many Invicta’s in my collection. Not a bad watch and lots of bang for the buck! Thanks for a great video, and God bless!

    The Cartier Santos is an iconic beauty but I would not buy one. Why? Because the Santos is very scratch prone, especially on the high polished bezel. Cartier knows about this flaw and refuses to fix it, meanwhile, UA-camrs keep making excuses for the flawed and subpar metal casing. Silver colored watches, such as stainless steel and titanium, are the defacto metal of choice. Why, in 2024, aren't manufacturers making "scratch-proof" watches? There are PVD coatings and nomenclatures like 316L steel, super titanium, TinSkin 3.0, and platinum encasements. A company as profitable and well funded as Cartier has no excuse for making watches that are scratch prone. Invest a little R&D and fix this problem. It's not just a Cartier problem, but most luxury watchmakers don't put in the effort to ensure their watches are "scratch-proof" or as scratch resistant as possible. It's a shame. For this reason alone I would never buy a Cartier Santos. Profits above all. So what are the most scratch resistant metals? Tegiment steel and UltraHex titanium.

      @monarchtimepiececollection 6 місяців тому

      Although that is true, and several company’s are making scratch resistant watches with newer materials, but Cartier does have a PVD santos now which imo is stunning. Along with there are newer santos models that have ceramic or pvd bezels to combat this pronation to scratches. Although I agree that the stainless steel isn’t as scratch proof as other materials, I believe brands still use it for its durability and versatility. I’m sure it’s cost effective and yields a greater return but overall I think it’s safe to say that most collectors prefer to have a SS watch in their collection opposed to other materials other than precious metals
