Cartier Tank Solo Pictorial

[mclarendude]

This is a watch that I've been lusting for since as long as I can remember, and I finally got it a few weeks ago. Decided to show you how good it looks.

It has a Swiss Ronda movement, so it's pretty accurate, time-keeping wise. And for $150, I cannot complain.

Thought I should share it's beauty with my friends.

Enjoy.

EDIT: I've been getting PM's on where did I source it. I sourced it from a NON-TD, but, any of our great TD's should be able to source it for you. Just send them a picture of it!

Still one the all-time best gents watch ever. The Tank is a legend and yours is a beauty, enjoy it.

You can send a picture of it to any dealer, and they'll be able to source it for you.

Inside the lug width, it's around 24mm. So, I'd guess the strap is also 24mm.

What do you mean mate? any tank solo is "as good as any"? this clearly doesnt happen in any other replica model (take IWC ZF, BP , etc or 16610 noob vs j12 or Omega noob vs v6f, etc) of any other brand, I mean there must be a "best" version or best factory for a cartier tank rep, right? or is the status quo that any one is the same?

I have no idea who made my Tank. I got this watch because another fellow member at another forum had gotten in, and I just sent a picture of that watch to a dealer, they sourced the exact one, I paid, and I got it. If there is a "best version" or "best factory", I have no idea about it. I just know that my Tank is great quality.

I searched online for some time and yeah, for the tank there's no "super rep" all versions seem to be equal in quality. For the Santos yes, many versions and great ones too. The tank seems to be easier to rep so nobody cares to do a super rep and people just buy whatever any TD would want to sell them as "any is as good as any" or so it seems.I wouldn't ask a TD to sell me a 16610 and just send them a pic and let them chose because for the Rolex sub there are many many variations and subtle nuances.

It would be nice if there was a niche Cartier builder modding the stock Cartier reps to the highest quality and closeness standards like the TC or BKs, Or Marlins PAMs. For Cartier no one seems to really care.

[Purumpumpum]

This is a great Cartier. I used to have the gen but sold it in order to get a Patek in 2013. May I ask where you got it?

 

[instalex]

Which dealer sells it? I can't find it and emailed a few but nobody has it.

 

[rhombic]

I'm looking for a woman's version of this watch!!

 

[achapgase]

It seems Puretime sells it here with a quartz movement
