Carrée 2960 c. 1985 Box 2024 Service
An iconic Cartier reference 2960 with a dreamy red dial. This piece was produced in 1985 and comes with its original must de Cartier box and Cartier service papers. The watch has just returned from a full Cartier service in August 2024. The box is in good working condition with light wear throughout as might be expected given its age. The case and bracelet is in Very Good condition with some light marks on the bezel and clasp as shown in photos. We've not polished the watch so as to keep it as untouched and original as possible. There are some very faint marks on the dial, only visible in some lights / angles when scrutinised. The dial is flawless with an incredible depth to it and the crown stone is undamaged. Neo-vintage Carrees from the 1980s and 1990s have started to pique collectors' interest over the past few years. They offer the class of Cartier in a sports model design without the bulkiness that we're used to seeing in modern pieces. You can see why it's thought of as the perfect blend of sport x sophistication.

Santos Carrée 2960
The Cartier Santos was created for the Brazilian aviator Alberto Santos-Dumont after he complained about the difficulties of handling a pocket watch in flight. The overall design of a rectangular watch with rounded edges and a dial featuring thin, elongated Roman numerals has survived through to modern times, proving its ubiquity and timelessness.
