Cartier Santos Carrée Automatic Ref. 2961 – Full Collector Set (1979 Papers, 2025 Cartier Service)
We are thrilled to present this exceptional example of the iconic Cartier Santos Carrée Automatic, reference 2961—a timepiece that embodies Cartier’s timeless elegance and mechanical craftsmanship. This particular example is a true collector’s set, complete with original papers from 1979 and a Cartier service completed in April 2025, including a new Cartier crown and a 1-year official service warranty. It comes in unpolished condition, with a very long bracelet and is delivered in a Cartier service pouch (no original box).
Design & Features
The watch showcases Cartier’s legendary square silhouette in stainless steel, framed by a luxurious 18K yellow gold bezel—a distinctive two-tone design that remains effortlessly stylish.
The bracelet is fashioned from stainless steel with signature gold screws and is notably very long, offering excellent wearability across a variety of wrist sizes.
The white lacquer dial remains crisp and clean, adorned with bold black Roman numerals, and marked subtly with “Swiss” at 6 o’clock. For collectors, the hidden “Cartier” signature at 7 o’clock remains a key anti-counterfeit feature. Completing the design is Cartier’s emblematic blue sapphire cabochon crown, replaced as part of the recent service.
Movement & Mechanics
This Santos Carrée is powered by the reliable Cartier Automatic Calibre 077, known for its durability and precision. The watch was professionally serviced by Cartier in April 2025, which included the installation of a new Cartier crown. The service totaled €606, and the watch is accompanied by a 1-year Cartier service warranty, providing added peace of mind for its next chapter.
