So fine, and to the rich people every bit as high status, (in some ways even more so since everyone either has a fake, an homage or the real thing, but fewer people have a Cartier).
It's not as common so it's unassuming, and it's a flex without being pretentious, Im falling in love more and more with my Santos, however I do want a Rolex one day lol
And the Seiko guys are bragging about having a watch with a longer history than Rolex. 😂 BTW, Seiko fan boy here. I absolutely love my 5’s and have 8 of them. In fact I have a Seiko worth way more then my Daytona. (A Father’s Day gift from my kids which is why I ended up buy a bunch of them. Very lovely gift for under $300).
100%. Bought one second hand and took it into a Cartier counter to look at a replacement strap and the service was impeccable. Even though we were clear we weren’t buying anything from them today!
Damn it. Now I need to buy a Cartier? I’m already broke. I’ll stick to Seiko 5’s. I can flip the Rolex to get myself and/or family out of trouble to almost anyone on the planet. The Santos, not so much. It’s a credit card taken by everyone. That Cartier is every bit as valuable, but only to some people. The Rollie can be swapped for plane tickets, a $2,000 car and a tank of gas, or a ride in a boat for your family with moldy cheese sandwiches and water that smells vaguely of gasoline. All real examples of $20,000-$30,000 being turned into a rescue.
@JDYTC Watches are just jewellery now. A Seiko will look just as good to most people, you get just as much enjoyment, you'll actually use it in all situations and not fear damaging it. A Tudor is still overpriced, but if you're a multimillionaire and thousands feels like pennies then buy whatever you want.
@@overman2306 And actually that's not a "Seiko mod". It's just a badly made fake Cartier Santos that someone put a fake Seiko dial on. Seiko does not make any watch with a case or shape similar to Santos.

Albert Santos was an aviator and he asked CARTIER to pull out his pocket watch blah blah blah so, CARTIER designed the first wrist watch. I know my history, son!
Cartier and Rolex couldn’t be further apart. So if you want a Rolex but can’t get it. You probably turn to Tudor, IWC or Omega. But Cartier… man Cartier is for people who know. Cartier is for people with freaking class. I’m not saying that Rolex ain’t. But cmon every rich douche has a Rolex nowadays…
Bro where’d you get that stat? Cartier made the Santos around 1905. Wristwatches were around 100yrs prior to that! Breguet, Blancpain, and Longines to name a few
@@stocksxbondage Here you go... The first watch may have belonged to the Queen of Naples, Napoleon's sister, Caroline Murat, and it was made for her in 1817 by Abraham-Louis Breguet. According to others, the first watch was made by Antoni Patek and Adrien Philippe for Baroness Koscowicz, Budapest. The watch was completed in 1876 and was in practice a small watch built into an ornate bracelet that had to be wound with a key. The first, "mass produced" male wristwatch was the Santos... Here, something valuable. Now it's your turn, tell me about Blancpain and Longines!
@@faalbmusic Love how impressed you are with yourself despite drying up every woman in your vicinity like a stone 😂 Well done, you read the same article anyone else would if you Google search “first wristwatch”.

I would rather spend my money at Cartier because they want my money with no strings attached. Fuck Rolex who want my money but only after jumping through hoops. When I spend that amount of money it needs to be enjoyable,not an ordeal.
That’s exactly what makes Rolex more appealing though. Everybody can get the medium-ugly girl at the club with no strings attached, it’s the hottest girl in the club which comes with an ordeal and a headache.
I turned down the 39mm Explorer from my A.D. to buy the Santos. 6 months later my A.D. called me again and offered the new 36mm Explorer to me and I accepted that one. I think I like my Cartier more though.
Cartier is one of the supreme examples of art deco design. The santos along with the reverso, the cellini prince, are all stand alone iconic art deco designs. They have nothing in common with rolex sports watches. Santos wearer probably DOESNT want to stand out for name but rather distinguish him or herself by displaying their taste in design. Santos is a distinction in taste and design.
I don't really agree, Cartier is very different from Rolex since their watches are more dressy and classy. Also it's easier to match cartier watches with your partner.
This clown thinks everyone wants a Rolex. He’s like a Ferrari owner who thinks everyone wants a Ferrari, and if you get anything else, you’re settling for less, even if you got a Rolls Royce 😂
John F. Kennedy, Bill Clinton and King Charles did (and do) wear a Cartier. They chose a Cartier instead of a Rolex. It's not about money. It's about class.
Actually, I prefer Cartier to Rolex. Rolex churn out essentially the same design with different bezel and face colours and finishes. Cartier has better and far more varied styling.
What the heck, he is bang on with it 😂 I went to a Cartier boutique after getting turned down by one of the Rolex ADs in my area and bought a Santos out of spite 😂
Not true, I went for Cartier because it's classier and different, I don't want to own a Rolex because of the following : 1. Everyone has one. I don't want what everyone else mindlessly chooses like primitive apes. 2. Cartier looks way better. Period. 3. Cartier stores have the best and most helpful staff that don't use disgusting sales tactics and lies about their stock. 4. In history, the most elite of people including presidents worldwide worn Cartier more often than they did rolex. Fun fact, most Rolexes worn by world leaders were given to them as gifts because Rolex are obviously desperate little leeches.
Other way around for me, had numerous rolex watches, absolutely dislike how the brand evolved, now in general behaves and also designs current models as either total failures or just reissued classics cause they couldn’t come up with something nice. So cartier and A. Lange it was for me from here.
Imagine being so worried about what kind of watch another man decides to buy and wear. Lmfao this guy should worry about what he eats instead before coronary heart disease drags him six feet under. The Cartier Santos is simply more elegant than the cliché Rolex which is why those with good taste prefer it. Let's remember that money doesn't buy class.
Cartier santos was the first pilots watch. Love the history of it and part of the reason I actually like it. Maybe a solid GADA watch for somebody who’s not concerned about getting scratches on the polished bezel
Santos, originally made for the legendary aviator Mr Alberto Santos Dumont is pure class and a century+ old! Making it a legit iconic time piece! Not many brands can say that about a design. Plus, this reference here has an interchangeable band allowing versatility for occasions. Oh, and yes, no screw drivers needed if you’re adjusting the links while sizing the band to your wrist size 🕺🏼
bro cartier is just clean i don't need a rolex 💀
So fine, and to the rich people every bit as high status, (in some ways even more so since everyone either has a fake, an homage or the real thing, but fewer people have a Cartier).
True
Indeed 👍🏾

I’m starting to really want a cartier just because I see so many Rolex. It’s like a status competition with Rolex owners, who can flex harder.
As if a typical Rolex owner know the history of Rolex 🤣🤣

Exactly lmfao 99% of guys wearing a Rolex don’t know dick about the function or history of the watch.
Pretty sure that’s exactly the point
People who know the history are either:
Actual watch enthusiasts
Or people who can’t afford a Rolex but are obsessed with watches (me)
And the Seiko guys are bragging about having a watch with a longer history than Rolex. 😂

Absolutely. After buying ap's and pp's from a guy who had to meet me at my bank then getting the full Cartier experience was eye opening
100%. Bought one second hand and took it into a Cartier counter to look at a replacement strap and the service was impeccable. Even though we were clear we weren’t buying anything from them today!
So King Charles wears Cartiers because he couldn't get a Rolex?....I think not.🤔
Underrated comment
Bill Clinton also did wear one. So did John F. Kennedy.
Why would you buy a Rolex when you can buy an Omega.
Because I like them? I've got an Omega, it doesn't in any way inspire me to wear it.
@@fontyyythen why did you buy it?

I actually love the Santos though. The design & shape is class.
Nothing to do with Rolex for me I just love how the whole thing is slightly curved so it fits my wrist perfectly.
Incredible piece ⌚️
Everyone has a rolex , Cartier feels less mainstream
Maybe it just says that you like the classic design and also dont wanna deal with the bullshit rolex makes u go through
Bingo. And that is why I own a santos… and don’t own a Rolex… correction, I owned two but sold them. Rolex are cunts
Exactly what I’m thinking. I’m planning on buying a santos. Love the classic design and it’s history. Also don’t want to suck dick at my AD.

Cartier Santos has an amazing history and eritage. Come one..let's not jump to conclusions
People are more "friendlier" with a Cartier than a Rolex, that's the difference. Third leg approved.
Nothing against, but i like Omega Seamaster in deep brown ceramic over any Rolex.
agreed , omegas dials look so much cleaner
Both Cartier and Rolex are nice, but if I have to choose one, Cartier hands down.

Two totally different watches. Cartier are really nice! People that can’t afford a Rolex typically get a Tudor.

At least Cartier doesn’t put you on a waiting list for years!
In most cases a waiting list of a few minutes. "just a moment. Let me take it out of the safe for you.'
I picked a Cartier over all Rolex watches because I prefer my Cartier’s refined, minimalist aesthetic. Rolex watches are too chunky for my taste.
