Editor's Notes

When Brazilian aviator Alberto Santos Dumont asked Louis Carter to design him a watch that he could use while flying, he likely had no idea he'd be changing the world of horology. Named after the aviation pioneer, this timepiece is crafted from steel with a blued dial. It comes with a matching bracelet and alligator strap that can easily be changed thanks to the 'QuickSwitch' system.
