Watches and Wonders 2022: New Cartier Santos de Cartier Blue Dial Watch Replica


Since its launch in 2018, the Santos de Cartier replica has been the best example of the brand's sport/luxury watches, such as the Cartier Drive, Calibre and even the Pasha offer a sportier alternative to all the more stylish models. The Santos de Cartier has been the bridge between these two pillars. Depending on size and material, it offers an undeniably sporty, but also very sophisticated option. The Cartier Santos de Cartier Blue Dial replica WSSA0047 comes with a stainless steel case and bracelet, 100 meters of water resistance and the optimal size for larger models, and adds a blue PVD touch panel and rubber bands to match the practical QuickSwitch system.

The Case and dial

I found the relatively long 47.5 mm lugs not as pronounced as you might expect. The way the bracelet (or strap) seems to flow out of the bezel really helps reduce the perceived size of the watch. The case width of 39.8 mm is a more accurate indication of how the watch will feel in your hand. While I would personally go with the mid-sized Santos, I still feel that this sportier model does fit this larger size. The final size, the height of the case, is only 9.37 mm. This means that this blue watch replica WSSA0047 is very slim, especially for a watch with an automatic movement - Cartier's 1847 MC.


Relying on the same concept as the bezel, it also has a central area with horizontal recesses. Gone are the classic blue hands, replaced by larger luminescent ones. The Roman numerals appear to be applied rather than painted (which we will confirm when we see the watch). The dial is available in brushed dark blue with a bezel or brushed silver with a case in steel. In both versions, the watch is fully two-tone.


The Strap

When replica Santos de Cartier was revised in 2018, one of the greatest advantages was the addition of the QuickSwitch system, which allows changing between the bracelet and the rubber strap without tools. This concept has been retained with these new models equipped with a steel bracelet with a folding clasp and a blue rubber strap that mimics the look of a bracelet.

The Movement

The WSSA0047 replica is still powered by the Calibre 1847 MC, an automatic movement first presented at the Clé de Cartier in 2015 and produced by the group's ValFleurier manufacture. A classic, relatively simple but reliable engine, beating at 4He and storing a 42-hour power reserve.



Summary

Although it may seem strange to wear a Cartier while sailing, playing golf, swimming or doing anything other than drinking martinis in a hotel bar, the new replica Santos WSSA0047 is perfect for any of them.
