Cartier watches. Who owns one that is not the Tank Francaise?

[circoit]

Cartier is one of my favorite watch brands. As much as I love the Tank style, I think I've seen it around a little too often. I am intrigued by the Roadster, Ballon Bleu, the Must21 in white and the La Dona (a little weird, but its grown on me). Does anyone own any of these styles? Any thoughts?

La Dona

I'd love to hear more about any other styles of cartier watches, and even better - I would love to see some pics!

Ooh, one more - the Cartier Santos in gold and SS:

I have the roadster with pink face. I love the roadster. I'm not at all familiar with Must 21. I like all of the others you posted but I like the Santos least. Maybe cause it has been around for so long. Sometimes I regret doing the pink face on mine. If I did it over, I'd probably go with the white face!

I have a Roadster 18K gold with shiny burgandy croc band. LOVE it. Of course, I have a midsize tank too but I agree, so many people have it! This watch is very versatile.

I have the roadster with white face in SS. I love my roadster especially the option to switch between leather and stainless strap. It's almost like owning 2 watches.
I also have a small size Tank but haven't worn it ever since I got the roadster (almost 2 years ago now).
I really like La Dona too, it's more dressy - that's my mom's watch now so hopefully she'll pass it along once she gets bored with it.
Santos is my least favorite as well, the style seems a little aged now.
The other 2, I'm not familiar with.

I have owned a Santos once but it was stolen! I do own a Tank but now I wear the Roadster the most. It's very sporty and I love how the shape is very different from most watches. Overall, I love all Cartier watches

I had an SS Santos, but I felt like it was a bit too masculine (plus the links turned my wrists black every time I wore it) so I traded up for a mixed metal Tank Francaise (LOL. I LOVE it though. )

I always wondered why they called it a Roadster. It didnt look like a car to me. So I asked the Cartier SA a few weeks ago and he explained that the screws on the side were designed to look like headlights on a car, the knob to change the time is supposed to look like the tailpipe of a car, and I think something about the glass was like a dashboard? Something like that. Now I look at my watch and see a little car when I look at the side screws lol!

my hubby gave me a gold and ss ballon bleu for valentine's and i just love it. it simply looks special and elegant. it's very comfortable too. i think there are too many santos around and ballon bleu is a better choice

The Roadster is the best Cartier watch style imho. I'd love the XL two-time for myself.

I have the small Ballon Bleu Bi metal. I wear it all the time, and it still looks great even though it does get bashed about.

I love the two tone Roadster, but I also like the Santos Demoiselle two tone as well. The Santos Demoiselle is a much more delicate/dressy watch, but good for special occasions...

I have the santos auto gold and steel, it was called the golden anniversary and was produced in limited qtys.
