Cartier Tanks-solo or francaise?

[Rolo07]

Lovely watch, is this the larger size?

No, this is the smaller size. For some reason it looks huge on my wrist though!

Wow I really love this look! So elegant and classy

Thank you I still love it as much as I did when I first got it! It's much more resilient than I expected too which is always a bonus!

I purchased the small Tank Solo in August of 2012 and I LOVE it. I was looking at the Franciase too but I love a more rectangle face and the franciase was just too square for my liking. I liked that it was the cheaper option as well

I have the same watch with small wrists. It doesn't look that big on me but anytime I try to take a picture of it on me it looks massive! I wonder why.

Here's a shot from a little further out to get a better reference as to the size.

Must say, I am biased towards this watch! I also looked online at you H watch. It's really nice too, but I think the tank has a lovely understated elegance to it and can be worn dressed up or down, whereas the H seemed to look a bit more casual/daytime. Can't go wrong with either tho.

Hey can I ask what wrist size do you have. As I'm considering this watch my wrists are 5.5inches. :/

Thanks!

My wrist is about 5.8 inches. Truthfully, I still wish I had the medium size, this is the small. I've had it for 7 years and wanted the mother of pearl face so i didn't even try the medium. Of course, I still LOVE it to pieces and since I am petite it's perfect but just saying...

Well . . .I´m suspected ´cause I lve the tank solo.

I have one large ss, and it´s great . . .it´s a refreshed classic due to the ss.

You can use during the day with several bracelets, on the evening with a diamond.

One thing is for sure . . . tank solo is a dress up piece definetly. In my opinion, the TS looks still more classic than the TF, which also is great such like every Cartier model.

In addition, there is the financial factor. For the price of a TF you buy a great the TS a great classic watch + a trinity ring, what I did.

My next acquisition is a Galbe 2 tones or another TS in Gold with leather strap.

Difficult to decide too.

Good Luck for you . . .

Hi there, sorry to be replying to this so randomly, but do you happen to have a pic of your large Tank Solo? I'm in the midst of deciding between the small and large, but it's so hard to find pics of people wearing the large one! Thanks in advance
