Hi Everyone, I was just wondering what people prefer - the small or the medium tank francaise watch? I have quite a skinny wrist... but I think maybe the Medium size might look more of the moment?

Hokaplan · Feb 23rd, 2009, 10:29 PM

How tall are you? If you are 5 ft 2 or under, I'd go small. Over 5 ft 2, I'd go medium. JMO!

I agree with Hokaplan. It depends on your size. I like the midsize, but I am 5'7". My cousin has the small and she is teeeeeeny (like 5' and weighs less than 100lbs). It looks great on her.

I have and prefer the small one (Im' 5'4)

chanel-girl · Feb 24th, 2009, 12:53 AM

Definitely depends on your size and what looks best on your wrist and your overall size. I'm under 5 feet and petite and I would def so with the small, the medium just looks too oversized on me. Same thing with the Rolex midsize, it looks great on a lot of ladies but its just way too large on my wrist and body size...

i like medium, but agree w/everyone it also depends on your height~

forever21 · Feb 24th, 2009, 04:30 AM

I prefer the look of the small one but like the date on the medium one!

Sammyjoe · Feb 24th, 2009, 05:18 AM

I really dont think you could go wrong with either! Its a classic!

south-of-france · Feb 24th, 2009, 01:32 PM

I just got the medium one and it's not big at all. I have smallish wrists and am 5'5. The date is nice. The smaller one would be too small for me. HTH!

jclr · Feb 24th, 2009, 06:15 PM

I'm 5'7" and have the small one. I have very tiny wrists. When I was shopping for it, the Cartier SA encouraged me to get the smaller one because of my small wrist.

I don't think you can go wrong either way.

Luccibag · Feb 24th, 2009, 11:05 PM

I have the midsize and I think its too small! (Im 5'9 but I dont think it really makes that big a difference) The small is cute but I think I'd have to whip out my reading glasses to see the time! LOL.

canchan · Feb 25th, 2009, 11:38 AM

thanks for all your help. I am 5'6" but quite long ... i never knew the medium one had a date... this might affect my decision. To: thegraceful1 - yours looks amazing!

canchan · Feb 25th, 2009, 11:39 AM

does anyone know a place where i could see the two watch sizes compared - i don't live near a boutique so i have to get my sister to buy it for me

, fyi even if you dont live near a boutique, if you go to their website, you can view your closest authorized retailer, I know that NM and Saks carry Cartier watches.
