In 1978, Cartier relaunched it under the name Santos de Cartier, with an integrated metal bracelet extending the case screws — one of the emblematic sport-chic watches of the 1980s. This was followed by the Santos Galbée in 1987, with a more ergonomic case, then the Santos 100 in 2004 for its centenary. The Santos Demoiselle appeared in 2005: it retained the Santos DNA — softened square, Roman numeral dial — but abandoned the visible screws in favor of a jewelry execution and a link bracelet in the spirit of the Panthère. This is no coincidence: the Panthère, itself born from a softened interpretation of the Santos, had just been withdrawn from the catalog in 2004; the Demoiselle took over as a jewelry watch. Its name pays homage to the \u003cem\u003eDemoiselle\u003c\/em\u003e, Santos-Dumont's aircraft.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePersonality\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStripped of the visible screws of the Santos, the Demoiselle is primarily perceived as a high-jewelry watch. On the wrist, the \"Panthère\" bracelet with flexible links wears like a chain, and the setting seamlessly encircles the case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWatch serviced. Very good condition.
