Guest Daytona1984 Posted October 17, 2011 Report Posted October 17, 2011 Here are some pics of my Ultimate Cartier Santos 100 with the following features: - Swiss Eta 2824 - correct Cabochon Crown Ruby - all correct internal and external markings - 1:1 Version - all parts interchangeable with genuine - steel bracelet This version is not available with the steel bracelet so the bracelet had to be sourced separately. I hope you enjoy the pics and I welcome all comments
valerian Posted October 17, 2011 Report Posted October 17, 2011 Great pictorial, thanks for showing. I always sort these look sort of like military equipment but I find them strangely attractive. What 's keeping me from getting one is the blue sapphire (?) in the crown. Too sparkly for my taste. Do you get many remarks on the watch? Great post! Val.
zaza Posted October 18, 2011 Report Posted October 18, 2011 I second Val's Q. Do you get head turns on this beauty? Also where did you outsource the bracelet? Looks nice on your wrist
Doc Posted October 19, 2011 Report Posted October 19, 2011 Please--where can I get an SS bracelet? Doc
Guest Daytona1984 Posted October 20, 2011 Report Posted October 20, 2011 hey guys, thanks a lot for your nice comments yes indeed, i get a lot of compliments for this watch. it is quite huge in its appearance and looks so much better in person. i did not source the bracelet. the seller i got it from did. he told me that it was hard to source it, since the best version was just available without the bracelet and the dealers are not selling the bracelets separately. i have no idea if they do now. but i´m sure that some will do
PeteM Posted October 20, 2011 Report Posted October 20, 2011 I always admired these watches but never got a feel for their size... I dont suppose that you have a PAM you could snap a pic of it next to please... Nice pics mate
redwatch Posted October 20, 2011 Report Posted October 20, 2011 Good god that watch is amazing looking on that bracelet!!!! I loved my Santos, but I didn't wear it much because of the leather strap! If I had one on that bracelet I think I'd wear it a lot more!!! I sincerely hope someone chimes in on this thread to share the super secret source of that bracelet!!!!

It's no secret Red Andrew has it. You may check on his website
Guest Daytona1984 Posted October 21, 2011 Report Posted October 21, 2011 no problem buddy My mistake...sorry about that. Mike
Guest Daytona1984 Posted October 21, 2011 Report Posted October 21, 2011 next time i get to my other place (where all my watches are) i will take some pictures for you please don´t hesitate to remind me if i should forget at the moment i just have my valjoux 72 daytona, a bk wm9 tt sub and a ss sub with me :-/ I always admired these watches but never got a feel for their size... I dont suppose that you have a PAM you could snap a pic of it next to please... Nice pics mate
maxman Posted October 21, 2011 Report Posted October 21, 2011 The more I look at this watch on the ss bracelet....the more I want one. Beautiful. Mike
Doc Posted October 21, 2011 Report Posted October 21, 2011 Just got this note from Andrew: "the SS bracelet is not sold separately at all from the factory." Anyone have other ideas on how to source them?
zaza Posted October 22, 2011 Report Posted October 22, 2011 Just got this note from Andrew: "the SS bracelet is not sold separately at all from the factory." Anyone have other ideas on how to source them? I redirect the question to Daytona
PeteM Posted October 22, 2011 Report Posted October 22, 2011 I think reading D's reply he got it when he bought the watch...it was sourced seperately however... So I guess you need to buy the watch but would it be the Ultimate version?
Guest Daytona1984 Posted October 25, 2011 Report Posted October 25, 2011 the best version is just available with the leather strap. the member i got it from sourced the bracelet separately. my guess is that he got it from the second best version (the one with the gold eta) which already comes with the ss bracelet... I think reading D's reply he got it when he bought the watch...it was sourced seperately however... So I guess you need to buy the watch but would it be the Ultimate version?
shultz Posted October 30, 2011 Report Posted October 30, 2011 Nice combo. The ss bracelet makes the Santos a watch. I am after the Santos chrono with 7753 and ss bracelet. Had a look to the gen at the AD store: Great combo! A true quarterpounder
Guest Daytona1984 Posted November 2, 2011 Report Posted November 2, 2011 here you go pete... I always admired these watches but never got a feel for their size... I dont suppose that you have a PAM you could snap a pic of it next to please... Nice pics mate
redwatch Posted November 2, 2011 Report Posted November 2, 2011 Great side by side! I asked Andrew if I could get the Ultimate Santos 100, but add in the SS bracelet from the "non-ultimate" Santos and he said no. He claims the case sizes are slightly different and they won't work together. The search continues for an Ultimate w/SS Bracelet I guess.
PeteM Posted November 2, 2011 Report Posted November 2, 2011 Oh D..... your a star mate.... Thank you so much... I really appreciate you taking the time to help... Blimey I had no idea they were so comparable.... I always envisaged them sitting much smaller on the wrist... I must say its a model that has gone way up in my estimation.... I love that tank look to it.... Thanks so much mate
