Cartier Santos Large

Love this watch and love to change it up with this band.
The ease to change the band is ingenious.

Same! I got one last month. Steel bracelet is great sporty look, I got the black strap for a wedding, looked great. Calf strap and dark leather brown for some jeans look, and it's diff then most you see out there Love it.

I was at the Cartier boutique and tried one on today. Loved it in blue with blue strap.

I really like and prefer the deep blue dial, applied numerals, and sword hands to the standard white dial version, but can’t decide if it is legible enough throughout the day. I tried it on a few times in stores. Even with the bright lights in the boutiques I’m not sure there’s enough contrast against the blue for my eyes except at an angle where I can pick up the reflections off the numerals.

Love the blue as well but found it tough on my old eyes.

I really like this watch and it has been on my radar for some time. No Cartier dealers close by and the next time I am in a town with an AD, I will check it out.

No problems for me and legibility is a huge factor for me to.
