Cartier Santos ref. 2960 — Red Laquer Dial
Here's a vintage Cartier Santos steel automatic reference 2960 with a rare red lacquer dial from the late 80s, early 90s. Keeps great time and is fully functional. Measurements include a 29x41mm square case size and 18mm lug width. Integrated bracelet with screws that fit up to a 7 inch wrist (the bracelet was meant for a quartz, not an automatic one such as this). Red cabochon crown. Ref laquered dial. Quickset date function at 3 a clock. The dial developed a lot of cracks hence the \"spider\" affect it has, but its hard to tell in the photos (light cracks, depending on the light). There is a big dot near the “Cartier” signature on the right side, as seen in the photos. In the 9 a clock position, there is a light red mark on the dial, as seen in the photos. Stainless steel case and caseback. Nice polished finishing on both the case and bracelet. Drilled lug holes. Makes for a great watch for both men and women. A nice thin profile. Hard to come by red dial santos models. All the parts are original including the crown, dial, movement, and caseback. Both the dial and case are in great cosmetic, untouched condition.

What Our Clients Say About Us
Fantastic experience. Great watch. Reached out to Danny through his website. Was contacted by two great representatives who were both incredibly helpful. Went through most of the transaction with them. As we got to the final stages and shipping I connected with Danny. The watch was as described and the whole process was seamless. I’ve gotten responses from Danny directly post my purchase when I’ve had a quick follow up conversation which I so appreciate. Beyond a great selection of beautiful watches if you are looking for a good customer experience in what can be an intimidating vintage watch game I really do recommend DVW.
Danny was knowledgeable and friendly, with knowledge of multiple brands and a wealth of inventory to delight any vintage watch aficionado (or newbie looking to learn in my case). He set me up with a beautiful and functional watch that’s built to last, and fitted it with a great band that fit me and the watch perfectly. While perusing, I got to watch him interact with other sellers/resellers, and you can tell he is well respected within the community on 47th street, and works hard to procure the best possible inventory by dealing with everyone honestly and straightforwardly. If you want something unique, or just want to look at some beautiful watches, Danny’s your guy. I look forward to coming back and growing my collection!
Danny and his team were phenomenal to work with. They were kind, knowledgeable, and, personable. I got the exact watch I wanted for an extremely reasonable price and Danny and his team (I worked with Ben as well) gave me the confidence that I was buying a certified, real product. Couldn’t recommend them more if you’re looking for vintage watches.
What a find this place is. They have such interesting watches that I don’t normally find elsewhere. Unique watches and a unique experience. Already purchased three watches and am very satisfied. These make excellent gifts for yourself, your loved ones, anyone who appreciates a piece that’s character and class. A watch from here is definitely a conversation starter, and I received multiple compliments.
