This looks really interesting! Looking forward to see a review. Would be nice if it was released in gold as well

Looks like the ladies size? 19mm*35mm. Curious to see how it looks on a 6.5" wrist.

Yes apparently this is not the men size but rather small size. Oh well, another one for the wifey.

naturaqua Bro this is unfortunately a women's watch. Even on a women's wrist it looks tiny. The lug size is 12mm, so that should tell you how small this watch is.

Wow, only 12 mm between the lugs! Yeah, that’s really small, too bad...

I picked this up from puretime as a Christmas gift for my wife last year. It is tiny, but fits her small wrist quite well. Excellent quality and details that are to small to see with the naked eye (such as the "Cartier" in the V at 7 o'clock) are present.

Anyone have an idea where I can get a quality replacement gator strap? By my measurements it is a 13mm x 12mm and I can not find that size anywhere. I want to makes sure I copy the deep blue color.

Congrats to the watch! Very good choice!
Try it on Ebay. The size is tricky but not impossible to find a good one -> Strap 1 / Strap 2

Thanks, but neither of them are designed for the deployment clasp which my wife really likes. That seems to be the sticking point in my search.

1. How it looks on 6.5 inch wrist
2. How it looks on its own
3. Size relative to tank solo small size
4. The lug size is 13mm.

Conclusion: Yes it is not a big watch but if you have small wrist like me, it maybe worth a shot. I am super happy with the quality. It will make such an amazing gift for wives! As far as the straps go, try the ones on etsy. I usually just search "cartier strap". I
