In contrast to previous models, the XL size comes with a change of scale. On the wrist, the dial is wide, generous and taut, which focuses on style and its essential elements. The finesse of the case and the level of sophistication remain the same, from the sword-shaped hands to the beaded winding crown, from the sunray satin-finished dial to the case back engraved with the initials S=D, the signature of Alberto Santos-Dumont. This timepiece pays homage to the dandy aviator and close friend of Louis Cartier.
