The Les Must de Cartier Santos Carrée reference 2961 represents one of the most emblematic designs from Cartier’s vibrant and experimental “Must” era. Introduced as an accessible yet impeccably stylish reinterpretation of the iconic Santos, the 2961 preserves the strong geometric lines and exposed screws that have defined the model since its debut, while offering a fresh, contemporary expression of Cartier’s design language.


Crafted with the distinctive squared case and softly rounded edges of the classic Santos Carrée, the reference 2961 embodies the chic minimalism that made the Les Must collection a cultural touchstone in the late 20th century. Its clean dial, elegant proportions, and signature Cartier aesthetic combine to create a watch that is both effortlessly wearable and instantly recognisable.
