Hands-On The Cartier Santos De Cartier Skeleton ADLC Noctambule

It's the manually wound 9612 MC, a caliber that has seen use in other square Cartier skeleton watches In the light, this movement has a light grey metallic look that offers a nice and legible juxtaposition to the ADLC-coated black case When the lights go out the whole dial lights up in bright green Super-LumiNova.

Even the Cartier logo, which is super discreet and almost hidden in the daylight, really pops thanks to an application of lume right on its lettering In any event, a full rotor design would detract far too much from the open and airy visual effect conveyed by the 9612 MC's skeletonization This is a great-looking movement with a design that instantly conveys the information it needs to to the wearer.

The movement is composed of 138 parts and runs in 20 jewels. . Source
