Cartier watches manufactory

We are so interesting in wristwatch, but I think many wristwatch fans aren’t clear about the invention of wristwatch. Let us review this special story. At a party in Paris in the early 1900s, Alberto Santos-Domont explained to his friedn Louis Cartier how one cannot tell the time on a pocket watch when his two hands are busy. Cartier was very seriously about this request in 1904. With Edmond Jaeger’s help, he created the first wristwatch prototype that would enable his friedn to tell the time without taking his hands off the flying control.A man named Mr. John Harrison was a watchmaker by trade and had taught himself this craft completely with great and wonderful results. Mr. Harrison created a greater accuracy within watches of his times and found that the exact time could help in determining precise longitudinal locations of the ships for the Captains

The Santos 100 has three different faces: the first being white with Cartier black Roman numerals; the second, totally engraved with an exotic dragon and a third position, halfway between the two faces, offers a totally transparent view of the unique highend manufacture square skeleton movement, which has been 100% developed at the Cartier manufactory in La Chaux-de-Fonds.There was a time when people used to buy one or two Breitling watches that lasted a lifetime. Things have changed a lot and the new generation wants to show off watches.

he square Santos 100 skeleton has been specifically designed as a skeleton movement. This created another problem at the development stage of this watch. Since this skeleton movement was intended to be very pure with a lot of “air” around it, the Cartier team had to redesign the bridges in order to ensure that they could support the movement.
