How the Santos de Cartier Medium wears

Its lugs add 6.8 mm to the 35.1 mm case, close to the 7.1 mm typical across the almanac, so its diameter is a fair guide to how it wears.

On our fit model it sits best on wrists from 6" to 7" (15.2–17.8 cm); below 6" the lugs start to reach the edge of the wrist.

At 8.8 mm thick it is slimmer than 91% of the 80 other everyday watches we've measured, so it slides under a cuff more easily than most.

Will the Santos de Cartier Medium fit your wrist?

With a 41.9 mm lug-to-lug, here is how it wears across common wrist sizes. We estimate the flat top of each wrist from its circumference; measure yours for a closer answer in the fit finder.
