While the two-tone execution is a familiar classic, this example moves into a completely different territory. It combines a deep black onyx stone dial with factory-set diamond indices and a full factory diamond bezel. This triple combination of rare elements transforms the watch from a sporty icon into a piece of high jewelry, showcasing Cartier's mastery of both watchmaking and gem-setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA Study In Black And Gold\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a watch built on contrast. The polished 18k yellow gold of the bezel and bracelet screws stands out sharply against the brushed stainless steel. The brilliant-cut diamonds on the bezel create a frame of light around the dial, which in turn serves as a void of pure, deep black. The onyx provides a perfect canvas for the gold hands and diamond hour markers. It is a top-tier configuration that leverages every material to its fullest effect, creating a cohesive and powerful aesthetic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA Well Preserved Example\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis example is in very good condition. The case and bracelet show a level of wear consistent with careful enjoyment, retaining the sharp lines of the octagonal design. The two-tone bracelet is well-preserved, and the interplay between the steel and gold elements remains crisp. As with every watch we offer, this piece has been verified as mechanically sound and is ready to wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA Statement Piece With History\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis watch is for the person who understands the historical importance of the Santos but wants an execution that makes a serious statement. It has the foundational DNA of the world's first pilot's watch, yet it is specified like a piece from Cartier's high jewelry collection. It works because it is both a durable, automatic sports watch and a precious object. It is a confident choice that merges two of the most important pillars of the Cartier legacy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Specs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReference: 2965\u003cbr\u003eModel: Santos Octagon\u003cbr\u003eEra: 1990s\u003cbr\u003eMovement: Automatic\u003cbr\u003eCase Size: 30mm\u003cbr\u003eBezel: 18K Yellow Gold with Factory Set Diamonds\u003cbr\u003eBracelet: Two-Tone\u003cbr\u003eDial: Black Onyx with Diamond Indices\u003cbr\u003eMetal: 18K Yellow Gold \u0026amp; Stainless Steel\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 108.9g\u003cbr\u003eSKU: 1576\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Danny's Vintage Watches","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55544283627811,"sku":null,"price":30000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0889\/6099\/1523\/files\/DSCF3847.jpg?v=1788274705","url":"https:\/\/dannysvintagewatches.com\/products\/cartier-lady-santos-octagon-2965-two-tone-black-onyx-diamond-dial","provider":"Danny's Vintage Watches","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
