Loved this review! I will forever have a soft spot for the tank. 💕 pure elegance! It looks perfect on you! And you look so dang gorgeous in this video!
Ahhh! Thank you lovely!! Isn't it just a forever classic?!? 😍 She's top 3 for me I think! 😱
Awww! Thank you! 🥰
I love the Tank, I can't afford a real one but mine is a Chinese clomage by Sanda. It's the best £8 I've ever spent on a watch 🤣 I got the small "Ladies" version but I think it looks just right on my 7.5" wrist. I love how small and lightweight it is with quartz accuracy and no seconds hand so I don't have to worry about it hitting the markers, just a nice little grab and go, and the legibility is so good with the clean white dial and roman numerals with only 2 hands. Thanks for the review!
I love my Tank. I went for the large and I’ve been switching up the straps A LOT! It’s just fun, elegant, and incredibly easy to wear. And honestly I love the no seconds hand.
I'm surprised I haven't bought a million straps for it yet! Definitely in the plan, especially with summer rolling in!
Ahhh you love the no seconds too! Great to hear!!!
Exactly! If Muhammad Ali can rock a tank pre-fight, no man should ever feel emasculated wearing one! It’s a gorgeous and classically elegant watch and I hope to add it to my collection one day!
LOVE THIS! Say it louder for the people in the back! 👏
I hope you get to own one and adore it as much as I adore mine!
@@TheWatchBoxDiariesthank you! Me too!
I really think that anyone can wear a Cartier, but people like you were born to wear it! 😃 Great video.
The tank is for everyone! Haha but thank you! I do happen to think it wears well! Thank you! 🥰
The Cartier Tank is a piece I have been admiring for a while now & it goes well in just about any collection. I am specifically after the Tank Solo. Behind its historical provenance, it radiates class & luxury for such a tiny watch. Pairing the Tank with so many different straps makes it versatile for any outfit/occasion. I must say, this watch suits your beauty quite well! 👏🏼👌🏼😊
Another great review of an iconic watch Lucy,so elegant,I don't have that model but have a Cartier Ronde Must,I love Cartier watches
Thank you Joe!
Ahhhh I've been eyeing those up recently too. Another classic that's a little bit different!!!
Quartz movements are alright with any Tank, because there's no Seconds hand to give it away, and in an all stainless steel case it's far more tasteful than gold-dipped, gold-filled whatever cases. However; I did like their older more script style logo than the sterile, "modern" block letter version they use now. The SEIKO Tank is a wonderful alternative and also well executed.
Beautiful watch. A design classic and pure class 👏
It really is. So timeless!!!
Great video on a great watch. Just purchased a Tank Must XL a couple months ago, and each day it is always in contention to be worn that day. I have several straps to order so it will match more than the standard black and brown strap it came with. The XL does come with the center seconds hand, and I do love having it. I am not sure how much I would miss it though. Thanks again for the awesome content and have a great week.
Ahhhh its definitely the step up version! Unsure why they made the XL so different to the other sizes but I love all of the additional changes! I can see why it's a daily contender! More straps will definitely make this even more of a favourite 😍
Thank you! Have a fantastic week!!
Tanks are a collection staple 👌
Couldn't agree more!
Nice ladies watch. For men they should do a version without the blue nippled crown imho. It’s the one thing that puts me off.
Ooohhh do you think?? It's kind of their thing! Would a different colour be easier to wear maybe?
@@TheWatchBoxDiaries I know it’s the Cartier signature but it’s more the crown shape itself rather than the colour of it. I just feel a shorter, flatter edged crown as on a typical watch would look less feminine/odd than an elongated nipple! 😆
I'd like to get one of these for my wife.
I've noticed the book behind you in the background of many watch reviewers. Perhaps you, Britt, Jenni, & some of the other lady watch reviewers could collaborate on a complimentary book "The Lady & Her Watches" or something along those lines.
I think she would love it!
There are many books, and most are man made. I love the idea of curating a book for females 😍
I've actually wondered why it was called the Tank, now i know😎
I'm glad to have helped with at least one watch related quiz question 😂🥳
Only con is maybe the mineral crystal - chipped mine quite quickly after buying though I do bash my gear a lot!
Haha! I'm quite surprised I've not chipped mine yet tbh! So if I've not managed to, I'm quite impressed that you have! 😂
Such a nice watch
Glad you agree! Do you own one?
Classy 👌
Always! (The Watch, not me 😂)
Great review ! May i know what is your wrist size? Mine is 6.1 inch.
My only con - I wish there was a size between the L and XL.
Totally agree! Not sure why there's not a medium option 🤦♀️
Me too!! 😜⌚️🔝👍👍👍👏👏👏
🥳🥳🥳 Great choice!!!
Worn by icons INCLUDING you!
😂😂😂 why THANK YOU!!! 💁♀️🥰
