Santos Carrée 2960 — Stainless Steel · Burgundy Dial
Deep burgundy lacquer dial with no numerals at all — just “Cartier” and “Swiss” — steel sword hands and a red cabochon crown instead of the blue one. Dealers tie it to the Santos’s 75th anniversary in 1979; the lacquer often spiders with age.
Dated examples: 1981 (Bachmann & Scher), 1983 (Danny’s Vintage Watches).
