How it wears

Wears true to its 39.8 mm case size

Cartier Santos Large 2018 Collection 39.8mm measures 47.5 mm lug-to-lug on a 39.8 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.19 against a database median of 1.18. That span is longer than 57% of the 8,093 watches in this database and longer than 88% of the 193 Cartier watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 53 mm (2.09 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 64 mm (2.52 in) it starts to look compact. Below 47.5 mm (1.87 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.

At 9.08 mm thick it is on the slim side, thinner than 89% of the watches with a listed thickness.
