Cartier Santos Carrée 2960 ‘Ghost’

The One.

We would go for this example when we need to pick one Carrée. The sharpness of the case is something we admire, but the true showstopper is the dial. Collectors call them ‘’Ghost’’ dials due to the fact that the Cartier printing sometimes disappears in different lightning. We already hear you thinking, there is another one that looks similar? Yes, the Galbée.

Where the Santos Galbée still has some rounding’s to it, the Carrée’s case design is more square and is showcasing very sharp angles. The Carrée was immediately an icon since its introduction in 1977. It marked Cartier’s transition to offering a more accessible stainless steel sports watch. The Carrée became famous for its unique square-shaped case which significantly contributing to Cartier’s appeal among younger audiences.

It’s always a pleasure to offer these kind of watches because of their rich history. Besides their history you still can find the true craftsmanship from Cartier in these pieces. We always try to source and sell timepieces like this model, but we must admit that it becomes quite hard to find these in a well-preserved condition. That’s why we are always happy to offer you guys another Carrée!

The watch is fully serviced and like mentioned before the condition of this Santos is how you’d like them to be. This timeless piece is for someone who admires not only the history but the unique design aesthetic of Cartier.
