LOVE! š I know itās a close-up and you probably have very petite wrists (so do I) but this actually looks a bit larger on your wrist than I had anticipated, which is great! Maybe because the main shot iāve seen is on a manās wrist where it looks SUPER tiny ā¦ this looks perfect on you! Enjoy! š

Yes! Trying to decide between the new tank mini and the mini bagnoire w/ leather strap ā¦ I also love the bagnoire bangle but itās a bit too dressy and pricey for me at this point; I want an everyday watch.Oh thank you for the information! Now I am itching to get it. I've looked at it multiple times today and it's been available to add to bag each time! I don't want to lose my chance like with the mini baignoire since it's never in stock in US now. Are you deciding between this and the mini baignoire with leather strap? I looked at them side by side online and it looks like the mini baignoire is a touch larger, maybe because the bezel is thicker from what I can see online. They're just tooooooo cute! I think I would have trouble reading the face but like what you mentioned above, I don't think I'd even use it for reading timeI've never owned a watch before. I also love the bangle mini baignoire which is almost double the price. I really have no idea what to go for and nothing is available to try on so I would just have to blindly choose one.
Now looking at the side by side picture below.... I am kind of feeling like the Tank Louis is more special and classy.I also have a love bracelet, curious how they look together.

I normally much prefer rectangular watches over round and oval shapes, so I donāt know why Iām so into the bagnoire! Thereās just something about that thick bezel that really does it for me, and I do feel like it has a bit more presence on the wrist than the tank mini.
Both are beautiful, timeless, everyday options ā¦ so tough to choose! I feel like the bagnoire is ever so slightly more feminine and dated looking, while the tank is a bit more unisex and modern/timeless? Like the bagnoire makes me think of vintage styling, watches ladies would wear with dresses in the ā50s-ā70s, whereas the tank feels a bit more contemporary just due to its shape.
I honestly love both vibes though, vintage feminine and timeless contemporary, so itās really hard to pick. It may come down to the fact that the tank is readily accessible online ATM and the bagnoire is not! Good luck with your decision; either option is wonderful! š
Yes agree with all your sentiments! My partner says the tank looks better and that the baignoire bangle is nicer than the leather version; he also read somewhere that the tank is the best Cartier watch if that helps. I do love both but maybe we should just go for the tank since it's available online!
Love it! It doesn't look tiny on your wrist at all! Do you know what size you are in love bracelet by any chance?
Are your hands and crown black or blue?
Iāve picked up my one from the boutique yesterday š! For reference, I wear size 16 in love bracelet.
LOVE!!!!!! Congratulations, it's so beautiful.
Thank you so much for sharing. I wear the same size in love bracelet too; the watch face doesn't look too mini on our wrist size at all! Do you have love bracelet? Would you stack them together?It's interesting that everyone's watch hands/crown looks very dark in photos. On the website it looks like such a vibrant blue. How do you think it looks in person?
Thank you š! I am very happy with my new mini Tank Louis. Itās such a dainty, feminine and versatile piece imo. I have 2 small LBās stacked on my other arm and you can definitely wear them stacked together. I probably prefer wearing it by itself or with a tennis bracelet. Itās just personal preference š.LOVE!!!!!! Congratulations, it's so beautiful.

The crown is a sapphire blue that appears different depending on the lighting. I would say it appears mostly as a very dark navy blue š š. Hope this helps!
its a sapphire so it really depends on lighting!LOVE!!!!!! Congratulations, it's so beautiful.

Nice š how brave r u to stack the watch with the tennis bracelet, I could nvr do it scared it might scratch the watch š
Thank you š! Tbh I wouldnāt stack it now as itās brand new š. It looks so good stacked thoughā¦
