New job, celebrated with a new watch! 🥳🥳🥳

I added a post a week or so ago asking whether I should sell the green OP 41mm to fund the blue or green Cartier Santos de Cartier in the medium size.

The majority (including myself) said I should keep the OP, which I've done. Lots of members mentioned the white medium, as it's classic and much more legible!

I managed to find another true enthusiast that had a medium Santos in white for sale. We met today and done the deal. He gave me great price, for a piece that he had worn sparingly, was in excellent condition, and was barely a year old.

I love this hobby/obsession and I love meeting other watch people and sharing our passion!

This was a watch to celebrate a new job (not that I need an excuse), which I start in October. I cannot buy another watch (he says) until "Watches and Wonders" 2024.

Have a great Saturday watch friends!

Perfect watch.

I bought my Santos to be worn on special occasions only. And now it’s my daily I just can’t put it away!

I’m sure you’ll enjoy yours just as much.

Class bro. Great pick up.

Cheers!

Two thumbs up from me. I love these watches and I am happy to see you went with the medium. I have never liked the proportions on the large.

Congratulations - it looks great. The Santos was the watch that really made me appreciate Cartier. I can't see ever getting rid of mine.

I bought this as a special occasion watch but I have since recieved a black leather strap for it as a present from the wife and this unusually has turned into a favorite one and done when on conference holidays etc.

Congrats with this and your new job.

Thanks watch friend.

I'm already looking at straps for it. I have the tan leather that came with it, which is still brand new. I would like to add either a dark blue or black alligator/crocodile leather strap for it - or both! 😎👌
