The Cartier Santos Dumont collection is named after the father of aviation, a Brazilian Alberto S. Dumont who lived in France from 1891 to 1928. He was an aviator pioneer having designed and made several airships and planes that he flew personally which achieved world records and gained him great fame. However, it was difficult for him to read time from pocket watches while piloting so he asked his friend, Louis Cartier (Founder of Cartier) for a wristwatch to be worn and the Santos watch was born in 1904. It would accompany Alberto throughout his flights.

This watch subsequently became the first commercially available wristwatch and has since been named after the aviator.
