Cartier Santos Galbée Steel & Gold Automatic – Ref. 2966 (29mm, Unpolished)

A refined mid-size example of the Cartier Santos Galbée, reference 2966, blending sport and elegance in a timeless two-tone design. Featuring a stainless steel case with an 18k yellow gold bezel, white Roman numeral dial, blued steel hands, and a date display at 3 o’clock, this watch captures Cartier’s signature style.

This example from the 1990s–early 2000s remains unpolished and all original, with numerous light hairline scratches across the case and bracelet from careful wear. The bracelet is stainless steel with 18k yellow gold screws, fitted with a secure clasp. The sapphire crystal is clean, and the Cartier calibre 2671 automatic movement runs reliably.

The watch has been left unpolished to preserve its originality, but a professional polish can be arranged at the buyer’s request and is included in the sale price.
