As a pilot, I am really digging the Santos Dumont Skeleton in SS. I'm looking forward to seeing it in person.

I think I like the Santos. It looks like something I’d love to wear.

While I actually own a Santos Dumont, I think it's time to think about a Santos de Santos gradient Green.

Same, I like the green Santos a lot. The Santos Dumont with the micro rotor also looks very nice.

The Tank Nórmale on a bracelet is absolutely fantastic - shame it’s only in 100 pieces. I’d like to see the tri-gold Tank Louis models in person; they look like a disco ball in the press photos.

The Cartier Tank Francaise is so sexy. The YG looks great on Jisoo.

The Green dial Santos. Have been going back and forth on which dial to get, now it is more difficult.

I bought a small and a medium for my nieces back in 2013 (I think it was).

It always makes me smile seeing them wear them

Green Santos is beautiful; I've been hoping for that for about 2 years now.

I really like the yellow gold Santos Dumont with the blue stone numerals and breguet hands - I'm a sucker for breguet hands. At just 200 pieces though, I'm sure I won't even see one in person.

I have the current large Tank Americaine in steel. I'm really digging the new thinner version without the seconds hand but no point in buying a new one. I'm glad they got rid of the date window on the gold version. It was so stupid to have an ugly date window on the gold version.

Have to agree with others on the Tank Normale on bracelet and Santos Dumont. Another great year for Cartier

Tank normale is classic Cartier. A nod to the history of the brand, and the first time that bracelet has been in the lineup since I believe the 60-70s.

That’s my go-to this year, went to the boutique yesterday and expressed interested. Hopefully will be allocated one

Would like to see Cartier upgrade the movement on the Santos, but will still applaud the new dial choices in the medium version. Now if only they can offer the black ALDC in medium without the date...

It won’t be a bad idea buying one of them for my daughter that’s about to graduate.

Does anyone have experience changing the dials on a santos? That new green is fantastic and I already have a blue…just curious how bad an idea it is to just replace the dials?
My wife loves the new Tank’s also.

The Normale, new Americaine, and green & blue colorways of Santos are the highlights to me.

To me, Cartier and Chopard had the best showing and “hit” percentage compared to most other brands this year.
