Cartier. Limited Edition and Elegant, Santos-Dumont, Wristwatch in Pink Gold, With Eastern Arabic numerals Dial, Made for the “Dubai Watch Club”, Reference WGSA0059, with Box and Papers Model: Santos-Dumont, “Dubai Watch Club” Reference: WGSA0059 Case Material: Pink Gold Bracelet Material: Leather Strap Year: 2021 Movement: Quartz Case N°: N° 19, 4243 Dimensions: 27 mm Signed: Dial, Case and Movement Accessories: Box and Papers A collectors’ club based in the United Arab Emirates, Dubai Watch Club has presented a couple latest special edition for its members. Taking inspiration from the Cartier wristwatches, specifically the Santos-Dumont, they offered a distinctive new take on the classic design. Available in different sizes, the lot here offered is a fantastic specimen of reference WGSA0059, the smaller version in pink gold compared to the bigger one realized in steel (the Santos-Dumont Extra-Large). Featuring a salmon dial inspired by the Santos-Dumont 90th Anniversary limited edition of 1994, the Dubai Watch Club version features Eastern Arabic hour numerals as is tradition for special editions made for the region. The Dubai Watch Club edition injects novelty into the design without doing too much: the only changes to the watch are the dial color and hands, although Breguet hands were historically found on many Cartier models. The best feature of the dial is surely the color of the numerals, which are rendered in a dark red that was meant to mimic Cartier’s house color. Notably, red numerals were traditionally found only on platinum watches, while this Dubai Watch Club edition is in pink-gold. Founded by local collector Adel Al Rahmani, Dubai Watch Club has some 120 members in its ranks. The club has commissioned a handful of special editions in the past, including from Jaeger-LeCoultre, Roger Dubuis, and H. Moser & Cie. Offered in basically unworn conditions, this very watch is sold with its original box and papers.
