In 1904, Louis fulfilled his friend Alberto Santos Dumont, a well-known Brazilian pilot, his ambition to be able to read the time while in flight. One of the earliest wristwatches was created at this time. The watch swiftly rose to prominence as one of the Maison’s watchmaking icons because to its geometric design and exposed screws. The Santos became a timeless masterpiece that would stand the test of time.
