Fly like an eagle
My 2013 Cartier Metiers d’art Santos XL from watches and wonders Eagle motif, solid 18k white gold so surprisingly it has as much weight as my AP RO 15400

It’s hard to see the lovely blue sky unless the light hits it but the eagles eye is so amazing that was hand done with an orange tinted enamel that’s lifelike.

Trying to get the eye but we clearly need a better photographer lol

And yes she needs a polish

The green is cool, I've tried it on, but I like the blue far more. I might be biased ;) However, a lot of my friends like the blue and think it looks better with suits or other things they own.

Good luck with whatever you decide!

Medium? Lovely! I also prefer the blue. Only green I prefer is the arabic version because that green actually pops whereas the domestic one looks black

Thats a large.

I went green, it pops when the light is right. What many miss, is that its a graduated dial - lighter in the centre.

I actually prefer its chameleon like qualities

Like so many of my favorite watches, I could never appreciate the Santos De Cartier in photographs. On the wrist however, wow, what a stunner. So many dial options that are all beautiful, and most are very legible. Great size options, it’s super thin and sleek. Quick change bracelets that can be swapped in seconds and can change the look from sporty to dressy. A bracelet that can be adjusted, fitted, in seconds with no tools. This thing is incredibly well engineered.

Best part is my wife and I can share this amazing watch and enjoy it equally (obviously not at the same time :-)

WOW
I did not know they made the Medium in RG, doesn't seem they offer it anymore.
Im not a big all gold watch guy (not a TT guy at all)
My only gold watch on a bracelet is my DD 40 YG with white roman dial.
If I find a Santos De Cartier M in RG it may be my second all gold watch.

Anyway I just picked this up today and it is such a comfortable watch its unreal!
