Closest competition made.
Great daily wear with great water resistance. And it’s thinner, which is most always welcome. Prefer the medium size without the date.

Santos is great and has a lot of things going for it, but the bracelet feel is not as good as Rolex. For a thinner bracelet it also compares poorly to something like a Nautilus.
With that said, if you like how they look then they’re great. I like mine. |

Santos is an incredible, beautiful timepiece and the bracelet is an amazing piece of engineering. My wife and I share a WWSA0037 and we both love it. With its easy change straps and bracelet that can be resized in seconds, the Santos offers a million times more flexibility than any Rolex. I prefer the Cartier over all Rolex dress options. As for a daily watch, I believe the Rolex has a more robust design and movement, which better suits my life on most days.

I own a Santos, Seadweller, and GMT Master II. All are well built. The Rolex watches will take more of a beating. The Santos is the most comfortable watch that I have and has a great quick release strap system.

Just got one. It’s very nice and elegant looking. Not as sporty as Rolex but probably equally nice in a different way. Would come more down to taste/ style vs quality here in my opinion. I have many Rolex and doubt I’ll have another Cartier for whatever that’s worth. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
