and you forgot to mention Carie Grant!

Really considering the 1840 , large automatic 18ct Francaise ... I’ll wait and see if one comes up for a good price !

I love the look, but see them so much on the wrist of women that I’ve decided to shy away from the model. Having said that, I see a fair amount of Daytonas being worn by women too.

What are your options on this watch ? I think it’s just beautiful . That chocolate face with the rose numerals and case is exquisite . Will this watch hold value if you buy used? RRP is £18.5k . Looking to be going for around the £8k mark pre owned. Manual wind Tank Louis after all ... might have to be my next purchase if so .

Allinthegame · 14 June 2019, 09:05 AM

Or the men’s rose gold ?

subtona · 14 June 2019, 09:12 AM

Traditional tank, I would choose the current Louis Cartier

I’m really lusting over the rose , any particular current models that you think would hold dcent value sir , I’d really appreciate the help !

Allinthegame · 14 June 2019, 09:26 AM

The latest yellow 18ct is quartz ? Jesus . The rose is mechanical , will wait to see if any pop up .

The current 100 anniversary Louis Cartier is in pink gold and extra thin w jlc movment.

Not certain but I expect it may be limited production.

Very beautiful, I would look no further if you want to own a classic.

Pink gold large size (33.7mm x 25.5mm x 6.6mm).
Spectacular

I have a 2017 Tank Louis Cartier. The 100 year anniversary model with manual wind. This model here: https://www.en.cartier.com/collectio...ier-watch.html

Send me a PM if you're interested! :)

Steerpike999 · 11 July 2019, 08:03 AM

I would certainly wear the Tank Americaine in WG. Its on my list

RolyMoly · 18 July 2019, 11:52 PM

Feminine? Eh.

I love a good Cartier tank and have a ton of respect for them as a company. And any man that can pull them off gets a hat tip from me.

Just impulse brought one back in June as a matter of fact that I loved when it hit my wrist at my AD.

That's a great watch. I just impulse bought a Santos after riding the fence on it for what seemed like a year. Really glad I finally bought it because it's a great piece. Pic below along with all the bracelets my daughter made me wear that day......

Killer. My best friend just bought That too, impulse, in Paris. Great watch too.

rolexwonderer · 25 July 2019, 06:16 PM

My 2017 Tank Louis Cartier, manual wind, rose gold. Feels about as classic as it can get. Does not strike me as feminine, although compared to a Daytona it has a different vibe. Different, not feminine.

Blansky · 26 July 2019, 02:02 AM

I think it's pretty classic and iconic. It's one of the few rectangular watches I have left. I love some of the models with the guilloche dial.

Indeed it is. I was just struggling to get a good pic with my phone while wearing it. Haha. Here’s another:

justjay82 · 1 August 2019, 09:18 AM

I used to own the large automatic tank francaise. I liked it a lot but wasn’t happy with the lack of accuracy. Sold it.

The Tank Americaine is one of the nicest watches I have ever put on my wrist. Would like to eventually buy one!

unlisted · 24 August 2019, 09:01 AM

I feel the Tank design is undoubtedly a classic, however, I think how well it wears is very contextual...

Fredette · 24 August 2019, 10:34 AM

A little skinny for my liking but nothing feminine about it
