My 1st Cartier
Pick up the Cartier Santos 100 Limited Grey Edition
Decided to hold out on the AP. I have wanted a Santos for quite some time and was on and off about which colors to go for. It is also much cheaper and a more practical daily watch for myself. Love the silver roman numerals over the black face makes them really stand out. The strap is actually a grey green mix, I dont know what to call it but a few of the photos capture it correctly. I also like the double sided clasp, its very masculine. Although adjusting the band is simple, it tends to want to slide back to the size its been at, assuming cause its creased there. My father always wore a gold cartier, he passed away 4 years ago and my mother holds onto it. Didnt know wether to give it to my brother or I, so I got my own!
I would also like to thank the member on here for all their help, answering my questions and for sharing their knowledge with me. Love the watch section!
Here are some shots.

I hear you. I want one. But I realized I was so on and off about getting the 15202 or the 15300 that I realized it wasnt the right move yet. I wasnt able to see a 15202 in person and I was worried that it was too "antique" feeling for me, too thin and fragile maybe. Im not sure. The only regular royal oak I got to try on is the Dual Time, which I loved but I know is thicker than the 15300, which is thicker than the 15202.
I need to see it in person first.
