The Octagon is a seldom seen watch in the Santos line and is one of the affordable distinctive luxury watches. It is beautifully styled and its eight-sided bezel is suggestive of the iconic Audemars Piguet Royal Oak.
Not a large watch, this mens midsize Octagon measures 31mm wide and the crown and guards add a couple more millimeters. It features a stainless steel case with 18K bezel, classic parchment Roman dial with blue steel "epee" hands, sapphire topped crown, and Swiss Cartier quartz movement.
The watch is in gorgeous condition - it presents as about a 9.6 out of 10. Note that the dial appears a little more subdued in tone that it came out in the photos.
Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. warranty on the movement and its function and a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity.
Cartier Santos:
Cartier created the Santos in honor of the famous Brazilian aviator Alberto Santos-Dumont. Alberto Santos-Dumont, a true daring aviation pioneer, flew in France and Europe in some of the first prototype airplanes.
