Story Behind the Watch

Inspired by the Santos-Dumont model born in 1904, created for the pilot Alberto Santos-Dumont—one of the pioneers of aviation. This design marked a historical turning point when the wristwatch first became a practical tool and a symbolic item. Spanning over a century, that spirit is preserved with the square case, Roman numerals, and characteristic blue steel hands. Now recreated with modern 904L stainless steel and monolithic sapphire crystal, combined with a stable and durable Japanese Miyota movement, it creates a timepiece that not only carries historical value associated with the spirit of exploration and conquest but also represents an elegant, brave, and enduring lifestyle.

Design Style

This model showcases a distinct classic and noble aesthetic. The strap is made of high-quality black leather with a smooth surface, adding to the sophisticated look. The bezel features the solid square design with rounded corners, finished in a polished gold tone, embodying the Santos style. The silver dial features classic black Roman numerals, a “chemin de fer” minute track, and blue steel sword hands, emphasizing a look that is artistic, standard, and minimalist.
