Cartier Super Clone Watches Santos Skeleton Dark Grey Dial Black Leather WHSA0009
Product Highlights & Overview
The Santos de Cartier Skeleton WHSA0009 epitomizes the pinnacle of contemporary stealth luxury. Blending the timeless Cartier square-cased legacy with its bold all-black DLC coated construction, this Super Clone displays its dark grey skeletonized bridge structure in unrivalled detail. Engineered to exacting 39.8mm original measurements, it delivers an imposing presence on the wrist without sacrificing slim dress-wristwatch profile versatility.
Super Clone Skeleton Bridge Structure: Skeletonized Roman numerals incorporated directly into movement plates.
Bold All-Black Stealth Look: Premium DLC coated stainless steel combined with dark steel sword hands.
Mechanical Movement Analysis
At the heart of this model is a bespoke-designed Caliber 9612 manual-winding movement. In contrast to regular market replica watches that put decorative plates on regular off-the-shelf movements, this one is designed from scratch to form the very backbone of the watch. Dark grey finished bridges function as the movement’s main plate, allowing light to flow directly through the caliber just like the genuine masterwork.
Watch Construction & Build Breakdown
The 39.8mm case is fabricated from premium grade stainless steel with a state-of-the-art Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) physical vapor deposition coating. This coating provides the watch with its dark matte-satin stealth look while offering increased scratch resistance compared to simple PVD treatments.
The iconic square bezel features alternating hand-polished bevels and brushed finishes with exposed screw attachments. Protected by a scratch-resistant custom-cut sapphire crystal with dual anti-reflective coating, it provides flawless clarity into the dark grey skeletonized movement. The timepiece is finished with a comfortable black genuine leather strap and a matching black-coated steel pin buckle.
Why Purchase Our Factory Super Clone Watch?
While mid-range factories use simple painted brass decorative plates atop of automatic movements, the Super Clone Factory Edition employs a bespoke skeleton manual movement. Moreover, proprietary DLC coating technology prevents the cracking and discoloration associated with budget black replicas, thus assuring color durability under long-term wear.
Full Disclosure & Transparent Pros & Cons
Following the principle of total transparency for genuine watch aficionados, please take note of these technical characteristics before purchase:
- Manual Wind Required: As a Super Clone of the Caliber 9612, this watch operates on manual wind mechanical movement. It does not have automatic rotor and requires manual winding each 36-40 hours.
- Water Resistance Limitations: Designed for daily splash protection (handwashing, light rain). Skeleton case construction incorporates multiple gasket sealing points, making strict avoidance of swimming, showering, or diving essential to prevent moisture ingress. Always secure the crown before water contact, and replace gaskets every two years.
- Low-Light Readability: In order to preserve the dark stealth look of the WHSA0009 reference, this watch doesn’t feature Super-LumiNova for hands and dial bridges. Reading in low-light conditions will be enabled by ambient reflection off dark steel hands.

Collector Q&A & FAQs
Q: Is the watch light or hollow when worn on the wrist?
A: No. This watch, owing to its skeletonization, is quite lightweight. However, because of the watch case made from stainless steel and solid mechanical parts, it gives you that luxury feeling on the wrist.
Q: How do I wind and set my movement?
A: To adjust time, set your crown to the first position. To wind the movement, leave the crown in position 0 and turn it clockwise 25-30 times until it reaches the resistance point. Do not overwind.
Q: Does the black DLC coating scratch easily?
A: DLC coating is way more scratch-resistant and harder than the usual black paint or even electroplated black coating. Under usual conditions, it will not get scratched and will keep its rich black color for many years to come.
