When the integrated bracelet boom hit in the 1970s, Cartier responded with the Santos Carree, a modern interpretation that defined the brand for a new generation. This 2960 reference was produced from 1980-1987, making it a specific and sought-after model for collectors who appreciate its pure, squared-off proportions.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAn All Steel Ghost Dial\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eWhile the two-tone Santos is an icon of its era, the all-steel version offers a more subtle and focused take on the design. This example is elevated further by its \"ghost\" dial, a clean, slate-grey surface where the classic Roman numerals are rendered in a tone that nearly blends into the background. Under certain light, they almost disappear, creating a minimalist effect. This configuration is significantly less common than the standard white dial, making an all-steel ghost dial a refreshing and uncommon find.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHonest Wear On A Rare Bird\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eThis example is in good overall condition.
