Cartier is a brand that is so important to the watch culture and has so much history, that it's hard to comprehend this hobby without them. But in the last 5 years or so, we have seen prices on their Tank models skyrocket, leaving many collectors with an empty spot in their watch rolls. But why? Why in such a short time have Tanks gone from pretty easily attainable to insanely astronomical? Find out today!

    Christian; T4YC. I feel I should own a Cartier or a JLC. I went to the JLC showroom in Bond Street, London, and the experience was very poor, and I wasn't blown away by the quality. I visited Cartier, a few doors down, and it was chalk and cheese. So I am planning on a Santos Large. The way you can change straps is brilliant.

    Don’t trade. Keep that and then buy a 90s tank with “Swiss” dial for around 2-4k. The basculante is one hell of a watch and doesn’t give you the same emotions as a regular tank. Wait more time enjoy that basculante then buy a tank!😁

    The coke needs to be no gilt that’s about the only complaint I can see. Other then the normal Tudor ones as in the fake rivet oyster and the complication of buying bracelets or straps for the watch. The rubber is what I’d buy it on but I’d love to have an oyster or jubilee to put on at my discretion and it’s like pulling hens teeth getting a factory one.

    I’d love a Tank Cintree, sadly too rich for my blood. The Tortue Monopusher rereleased a couple decades ago is even more in my wheelhouse, another watch I can’t make happen. Tanks, like Reverso are quite fine, I just don’t see them fitting my style. Can’t pull them off convincingly, though I am more drawn to dress watches than ever. Grew bored with tool watches quite some time ago.
