INCOMING!!!! Cartier Santos WSSA0039 ADLC

Just got this beauty today.
Have been a Rolex fan for a long time, will not pay grey market prices for hard to get pieces, so this caught my eye.

Cartier is doing a great job with the new Santos lineup!

It’s for the metal bracelet. Basically after you remove each individual link, you use this tool to pop back in the bar that comes out. Each link can be removed without tools by pressing the button on the backside. One of the biggest selling points of the new gen Santos lineup.

Didn’t realize they offered the ADLC in the new design. Owned one of the ADLC versions of the last Santos XL and really enjoyed it for the time I kept it. I did love the strap on the watch and kind of surprised they didn’t offer a fabric mesh one like this but instead went with the rubber.

Hi, Bill you are very welcome. I'm glad it all worked out for you!

I saw someone asked about the tool, yes that is for sizing the metal bracelet. Cheers!

Just set up an appointment with my AD to look at this. Came up randomly on my IG feed and just stuck with me. I've never considered the brand or anything like this really. I'm excited to try it on.
