i'm going to go with the rolex. i think it looks better and the size of that tank just looks too large for your wrist. if you plan to go tank, i suggest you go down a size.

still voting for the rolex though...hot, hot, hot!
 
I like the Rolex but not the men's size...it's just a trend. I would go for the two-tone Rolex mid size instead of the Cartier. Else you might want to consider other brands.
 
I need to vote for the rolex!! For reference I am 5'1", in my early 20s, and approx. 100 pounds and I always get compliments on my 2-tone submariner (which I have with the blue face--which would look amazing with your evil eye bracelet).

From the pics I love the rolex on you much better. I myself have played with the idea of the cartier roadster but end up going for another rolex instead (partly to my Dbf's benefit since we can share the men's watches).
 
thank you all for your replies!
This is a big decision for me and I really appreciate your input:)
I'm going to try them both again a size smaller, as a lot of you have suggested that this will make a more timeless piece.
Also, I'm very happy to see that you do recommend the two tone look, as this is my big leap on either watch.
 
i have the mens rolex DJ and I love it, I also wear a 38mm chanel J12 so Im sure the a larger watch and the ladies DJ just was to small and didnt do it for me. I say go with what makes your heart flutter! GL and congratulations!!!
 
I think the tank looks more elegant on you but I would also suggest going down a size. I have the midsize two tone (rose gold) tank and I love it, I also find it extremely comfortable.

I view the men's rolex as more of a fashion piece rather than the classic tank, if you already have a classic, get the rolex, otherwise, I would suggest the tank for its timeless quality and elegance.

Congrats btw :)
 
All 3 watches look lovely on you. And both watches are considered classic. I'm favoring the rolex just because of the shape. Personally, I'm not a fan of rectangular/square watches. Keep us posted with what you decide to choose. Either way congratulations on your future purchase of either rolex or cartier!
