For how bad of value it is, I’m shocked Cartier is liked in the watch community
Title is pretty self-explanatory, but for how obsessed the watch community is with specs and value for money you’d think Cartier would be avoided as they’re primarily fashion first and functionality last. Taking the santos for example, it’s a $9000 watch out the door for a movement with an accuracy as good as a $800 automatic Seiko. Typically, if it were any other brand posting such a high price for such a bad movement they’d be relentlessly berated by the community. Perhaps the watch community cares more about brand name than they let on? Who knows, still a cool watch though.
