Tank or Ronde?

[CC Kitty]

Tank! I also have this watch and have been using it for a few years now. It’s the perfect shape/size. So classy, sleek and chic!!

Hi can i ask why would you prefer quartz than automatic? It is the opposite for me, i love the look of tank but the automatic one is too big on me so i am leaning towards Ronde 36mm with leather.

I'm about to take the plunge and buy my first Cartier anything and I think I've decided on the Tank Anglaise. Anyway, I also only look at quartz watches bc:

1. less maintenance (imo) because it only requires a battery change (simple 30-minute process at most)
2. more accurate time-keeping
3. don't need to wear everyday (because I don't wear a watch everyday)
4. lighter watch due to quartz mechanism
5. smaller sizes available; I have a fairly small wrist so larger watches look funny

Late to the party here, but I'm buying myself a (pre-owned) Cartier watch for my 30th Birthday! Yippee! I'm also debating between the Tank and Ronde. Which do you think is better? If the ronde wondering if I would need to get a bigger size - this is the 29mm, but contemplating a 36 mm (I'm 5'7 normal frame, 6 in/6.25 in wrists for context). I love the BB, but way out of my price range (even pre-owned) unfortunately!
