How the first Santos de Cartier was born

Aviation pioneer Alberto Santos-Dumont met master jeweller Louis Cartier in 1900 and the pair’s resulting friendship provided a catalyst for progress. After the aviator noted the difficulty of checking the time on his pocket watch while flying, Louis Cartier invented the first purpose-designed modern wristwatch for his friend in 1904.
