Cartier Santos Triple 100 - Three Faces

The Cartier Santos Triple 100 - Three Faces watch is one of the most serious statements in the class of jewelry timepieces. The case of this XL sized men's watch is crafted entirely in 18K white gold and encrusted with diamonds and other precious stones.


The total number of diamonds on a Cartier Santos Triple 100 watch with three faces is 861, and their weight is 7,6 carats.


Details of the Three Faces on the Cartier Santos Triple 100


The main feature of the Cartier Santos Triple 100 is a movable watch face which is designed on the principle of blinds. When you turn a winding crown, triangular segments are driven up, changing the picture on the face dial of the watch. The system to allow you to select the watch faces took months of research and is based upon white gold prisms whose tiny swiveling motions are controlled by miniaturized gear trains.

Each Cartier Santos Triple 100 watch has three different watch faces. The first face is covered with diamonds and black sapphires, the second face is engraved with a tiger’s head and the third is a classic dial with 12 Roman numerals.

The Cartier Santos Triple 100 luxury watch is a limited edition watch and was available in only 20 copies. This luxury watch is priced at around $340,000.
