A spectacular and highly collectible Cartier Santos Carrée Ref. 2960 in stainless steel, presented as a full set and featuring the exceptionally rare Burgundy Red "Grenade" dial. Freshly serviced by Cartier in 2026 and accompanied by a 2-year international Cartier warranty, this is one of the finest examples to come to market.
Originally sold in 1988, the watch retains its original box and warranty certificate, while also including the complete Cartier service documentation, invoice, receipt, and previous service paperwork. All serial numbers correspond correctly, with the Santos' serial number engraved on the inside of the case and verified by Cartier during the service, for which supporting photographs are available.
The 29 × 41 mm stainless steel case has been professionally refinished by Cartier during its complete factory service and presents beautifully. The integrated bracelet remains in excellent condition, fitting wrists up to approximately 18 cm.
During the 2026 Cartier Boutique Brussels service, costing €1,274, the watch received a complete overhaul, including a brand-new Burgundy Red "Grenade" dial, new steel hands, a new sapphire crystal, a new red sapphire cabochon crown, replacement waterproof seals, and a light refinishing of the case. The result is a stunning watch that looks and performs beautifully, while benefiting from a 2-year international Cartier warranty.
