How the Cartier Santos Dual Time Adds Practical Elegance for Global Lifestyles
Men who appreciate both refinement and functionality find the Santos Dual Time especially appealing.

The day/night indicator adds intuitive clarity so you always know whether it’s day or night in your second location. Despite its advanced features, the watch retains the classic Santos aesthetic making it just as suitable at a business meeting in the UAE as it is at a weekend getaway or overseas trip.
