Kcore 0 Posted April 3, 2013 I just recvd my Santos 100 Ult. and before purchasing this rep, i tried on this model numerous times at ADs and at Cartier in NYC. With regard to the CGs, it's a bit odd as I found the CGs every so slightly different on each I tried on. One one, the top CG seemed a touch rounded but the bottom seemed sharper. On another both top & bottom seemed a bit sharp? Maybe it an individual perception thing, i dfon't really know. With regard to the bezel screws, the 8 screws are so, so tiny and because the bexel is highly polished against the brushed case it's impossible to tell with the human eye closeup, let alone looking at it on another's wrist.

baruch 0 Posted December 2, 2013 $1600 for a rep is indeed stupid, although I paid less ....unless you really like the Santos I wanted to buy the gen but seeing how much the price drops for a used one this wouldn't be money well spend either....and since I prefer my watches to be new I didn't want a used gen This rep Santos was a bit of a gamble but I'm happy with it...the watch was looked at by a inhouse watchsmith from a local Cartier AD and he was very impressed and is 100% sure the movement is original Cartier. He heard rumours about an illegal off the line production run with rejected parts and was pretty sure this is one of them Where can I buy this santos? I mean do they still sell these cartier santos 100- because I for one wnat to buy the gen as well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pringles 0 Posted January 27, 2014 Nice watch Silverspeed. If this is THE watch for you then you did a great deal. A new Gen goed a lot more, i believe. Wear it well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Adamsmith 0 Posted May 30, 2014 fuuuaaark, 1600 for a rep. I'm pretty sure you can snag a gen Santos for around $4k. yeah, and if the discount is good and plus currency difference plus tax return, you can get a fairly good price. i have no idea why a Cartier rep would ask for $1600..... unless all the parts are gen....well, maybe i wont consider it still...
