Cartier Santos Galbée Boutique dial

The Cartier Santos Boutique Edition Ref. 887901 represents a refined expression of one of the most iconic wristwatches ever created. The Santos story begins in 1904, when Louis Cartier designed a watch for his friend, the aviator Alberto Santos-Dumont — marking the birth of the modern wristwatch. Over the decades, the Santos has evolved while preserving its unmistakable design codes, and the Boutique Edition line was conceived to honor Cartier’s heritage through exclusive models available only in select flagship stores worldwide.

This particular Boutique Edition, Ref. 887901, stands out with its smooth champagne dial and elegant blue graphics, including blued Roman numerals, sword-shaped hands, and the iconic minute track — a subtle yet striking contrast that enhances its timeless character. The stainless steel case perfectly embodies Cartier’s sense of proportion, with softened square edges, polished screws on the bezel, and a gently curved profile that ensures perfect balance on the wrist.

Powered by a precise quartz movement, the 887901 offers everyday reliability wrapped in unmistakable style. The integrated steel bracelet, decorated with the signature screw motifs, completes the watch’s seamless aesthetic while providing comfort and versatility.

Elegant, rare, and distinctly Cartier, the Santos Boutique Edition 887901 captures the essence of the Maison’s watchmaking philosophy — pure design, technical mastery, and Parisian elegance distilled into one of the most collectible modern Santos models.
