Cartier Santos 100 Ref. W2020009 Watch Review
Article and images contributed by Michael Maximilien:In some circles, the French brand Cartier is seen more?as?a fine jewelry producer than as a watchmaker. However, the brand has a long history as a creator of fine timepieces coupled with a unique style which makes it hard to ignore…The original Cartier Santos was reportedly designed and created by Louis Cartier himself in 1904 for his friend and pioneer, Brazilian aviator Alberto Santos-Dumont. The Santos has been a major piece in the Cartier collection for a long time and in 2004 Cartier released their Santos 100 line which included larger Santos models.
Bremont Supermarine 500 Watch: First Diver For Young Brand
Emerging British luxury watch maker Bremont recently announced their first diver's watch. This is an important occasion for each 'active' watch brand. Having at least one solid diving watch is a positional and status signifier. Sort of like saying that the company is not serious about its theme unless it has a functional diving watch. Though the brand is based in England, all watches are produced in their atelier in Biel-Bienne Switzerland.While I feel that some of the current Bremont watches are bland looking (though pleasing and functional), the new Supermarine 500 does not come across that way. Sometimes you want a diving watch to be more conservative looking and focus on doing its job well rather than being too avant garde. That is why diving watches are important - the watch lover community evaluates them to see how well a given watch maker is able to represent the genre.
