Cartier all the way !! I never be a fan of Rolex and never think to have one but if you're concerning with value over the years, go for a Rolex. For me I bought what I like.

I agree, at first when I posted in this thread I thought Cartier hands down, but now like yourself, I can definately see myself wearing a rolex watch. I agree about Cartier being more elegant though.
 
Rolex all the way fo me! I actually saved for a Cartier (White Gold Tank Francaise with diamond bezel) but came home with a Rolex (18kt White Gold Rolex Oyester Datejust with diamond bezel and markers) instead. :yes: When I saw the Rolex watch next to the Cartier Tank it was a no-brainer.

BTW, the Ladies Size Rolex is quite feminine and tasteful (not a fan of big watches) and Rolex is waterproof not just Water Resistant like Cartier so I have no fear of damaging the watch when I steam clean the diamonds.

hmm I didn't know that...all the reason why I want one..
 
If you dont mind my asking, do Rolex authorized dealers give out discounts? if so, typically how much percent off?
thanks!

My husband is buying me a watch for my 40th birthday and I researched and studied both the Rolex and Cartier. I have good friends that personally own Rolexes and they recommend Rolex over anything else. I have chosen the Mid-size Datejust, Oyster band two-tone stainless and ever rose gold with fluted bezel and diamond markers. It is breathtaking!!! Never saw anything like it until I started looking. A rolex is an investment and a fine piece of jewelry. It will hold it's value clout for years to come!!

I agree congratulations on your new watch can't wait to see pics!
 
Rolex holds values way better than Cartier. Plus like the idea that you can change the face of you rolex so you can pay a little more down the road and upgrade your rolex to diamond dial and such.
