You could take it to a Cartier dealer and they should be able to tell.

If it is a fake they may destroy it though!

Best way to tell is to open the watch and see who the manufacturer of the mechanism is. I think Cartier would use ETA movements. If it's some cheap plastic, no (0) jewel mechanism then it's fake for sure.

Real cartier santos watches are engraved on the back of the watch not etched on the back like a fake. Also the word cartier is engraved on the clasp of the bracelet. Do not but unless these two conditions are satisfied.

You can distinguish real or fake.the real is heavy than the fake,fake is lighter.the color the real one is not to shine is dull,the fake is very shiney compare to real,the metal they use the real uses stainless,titanium and gold.The fake is nickel plate or zinc metal.the engraving the real is deep seated engraving,the fake is on the top only not so deep.I can't say your watch is real or fake,basing on serial number,the emitator can emitate the number.I gave you a tip how you know the real or fake.
