Your ensemble is perfect for you, the Santos is a timely purchase. Seconds to none.😋 . Proof that a chap needs both a Cartier and a couturier.

A watch to wear and enjoy. The customer experience proves that Cartier respect their customers, unlike other companies.

I recently purchased a Santos Medium and am really enjoying it. It is so different from anything else in my collection and the experience at the Cartier Boutique was fantastic. Congratulations on your new Santos!

My father bought this marvellous watch on a whim in an airport in 1988. He says he’s worn it nearly everyday since and has never desired buying a different one. He will pass it down to when I become the age he was when he bought it.

Ash, your suites as of late have been splendid! You portray a classic gentleman who knows how to embellish in a subtle manner.

Nice purchase, I think you made the right move.

Welcome to Cartier, Santos is a great everyday watch from the brand and the white dial has such excellent legibility compared to the other colour dial offerings. Everyone talks about the bezel scratching and how it's a downside. I've learned to enjoy my bezel scratches which actually has a kind of "raining effect" when I move it left to right slowly.

One thing they never tell you about is the plastic protector. The sides of the plastic protector can fray over time and stick out at just the perfect angle to scratch the sides of your Santos with complete ease. Even worse is the fact that these scratches will stand out as it goes against the brushing on the sides. Better to store the Santos in the travel pouch over the watch box if you are going to frequently wear it. Leave the plastic protector in your watch box and don't use it unless you are taking it back to service.

If you register your watch on the Richemont Enquirus lost and stolen watch/jewllery database, the integrated bracelet has it's own serial numbers separate to the watch.

Very nice choice, Ash. That's a handsome watch indeed. Agree it's dressier than the Rolex, at least for my taste. Yet it's not limited from being a daily wearer. So this will be your EDC --"Every Day Cartier"!

Great video!! Great choice!! The Santos holds its own against any watch in your collection and fits your YouTube dress style perfectly. Looks great with the leather strap too.

This has got to be the most pleasant background I’ve ever seen on YT.

Great choice. I love my medium Santos.

I just made the same move and purchased a Cartier Santos Dual Time. While I still enjoy my Rolex watches, there is a style and elegance which drew me to this watch and has piqued my interest in other Cartier models. The buying experience was exactly as you described as well. When I first saw this video, I remember being somewhat disappointed in your turning away from Rolex. I have no intention of selling any of mine, and will certainly continue as a Rolex customer, I do appreciate you helping to show me the way to Cartier as well. It was a delayed reaction, but a most satisfying result. Keep up the good work!

I just bought a Cartier Santos Medium today, and I'm so happy to add this to my collection. Your video gave me the extra motivation to make this purchase. I really appreciate your insights on this watch, especially as I was getting a bit tired of chunky Rolex. Your reviews have truly refined my taste. Thank you!

I purchased it at a nearby AD instead of BT and also received excellent service. It was a much better experience than buying a Rolex from a second-hand store.

Love your set up. The red box, contrasted with those lush green woods and bluebells.. beautiful. So nice to see the warm weather return

[daniell]

Love the shirt. Great subtle pattern, classic and classy. Pairs fantastic with your coat and tie, and the collar is absolutely perfect.

Gorgeous watch, congratulations. Likewise, I purchased a Santos 100 medium back in 2007 for precisely the same reasons you mention. It’s a timeless classic, very comfortable on the wrist, and extremely versatile. I recently dropped the watch off at Cartier for servicing and also had an excellent customer experience which was very refreshing.

[JamesAlexander]

Perfect choice Ash and a true Gentleman’s watch. You have in essence, the first Pilot’s watch. I sincerely hope you enjoy wearing your excellent choice.

[stonec]

Congratulations. Cartier is pure class

[briankenny]

Great watch and great decision. There is so much packed into this watch. So much history, style, and innovation. Je nais se quoi! No other house does it better than Cartier.

[adamharrison]

I think the watch looks fabulous. My wife wears a Cartier Francaise which she purchased 25 years ago. It still looks great, I have often considered getting the male version. Good choice 👍
