THE SANTOS® 100 CARBON COLLECTION FEATURING ADLC: INNOVATION FROM START TO FINISH In 1904, aviator Alberto Santos-Dumont wanted a device that allowed him to determine the time while flying without letting go of the controls. His friend Louis Cartier delivered, thereby transforming the popular watch from a device concealed in the pocket to an accessory proudly displayed on the wrist. The original geometric design, with its rounded corners and authoritative joints, has endured in a series of celebrated Santos de Cartier collections. Now, throughout the Santos® 100 Carbon collection, the model that started it all bears a unique and incredible new finish: amorphous diamond-like carbon de Cartier, also known as ADLC. ADLC is a remarkable coating exclusive to Cartier within the watch industry. As the name implies, ADLC is nearly as hard as diamonds — virtually indestructible. An improvement on basic diamond-like coating (DLC), ADLC enhances the performance and extends the lifespan of any material, and it can assume any texture, from polished to satined.
Through a process called plasma-assisted chemical vapor depositions (PACVD) conducted under vacuum conditions, hydrogen and carbon combine to uniformly cover steel, titanium or gold. The resulting ADLC coating provides extraordinary resistance to scratches, corrosion — even fingerprints. It is also exceptionally easy to clean and comfortable to wear. Following the precedent set by that first Santos wristwatch made by Cartier himself, the Santos® 100 Carbon collection featuring ADLC represents yet another exciting first in the luxury timepiece industry. SPECIFICATIONS: Satined titanium case coated with ADLC, back in steel coated with ADLC, pink gold bezel, screws in steel coated with ADLC, black dial, sapphire crystal, functions: hours, minutes, seconds, date and chronograph, black toile de voile bracelet, water-resistant to 100 m/330 ft/3 bars, 9 pink transferred Roman numerals, brass/steel pinkish rhodiumized sword-shaped hands with phosphorescent coating, titanium faceted crown set with a faceted black synthetic spinel, push-buttons in pink gold, security clasp in titanium, steel coated with ADLC and pink gold, mechanical movement with automatic winding Cartier calibre 8630 310.274.4710 09
The Breitling family tradition of achievement in quality and accuracy in timekeeping has continued for 125 years. Early on, Leon Breitling and his son and successor, Gaston Breitling, developed and built the very first wrist chronograph. Willy Breitling, the founder’s grandson, later modified and improved the modern chronograph.
