“Everything old is new again” - Peter Allen song

Just ordered this, for delivery sometime June-September. Wanted something I could slap on my wrist without a thought. QUARTZ!! Have I gone insane? Supposedly an 8-year battery, I think.

Well, I missed the train that left the Reverso Rouge Station, so this ”must” suffice. (Get it?)

The new Must 2021, burgundy. I’ll likely regret not getting the one mechanical in the series. Oh, well.

Ano “Can the 1980s really be resuscitated?” Nuevo

I like it, but if you throw some roman numerals in there, I may be game!

I’ll twist Cartier’s arm for some numerals for ya, Ted! 😉

LOLOLO - Please do!!!

Not sure about that...

....i would prefer a clean dial as it is-----i am seriously looking to add one of these on my wrist,the other colours are just as attractive.

Good for you — I am also intrigued by this new line of Cartier offerings.

Hahaha! We think alike re jlc rouge. Why this piece intrigues me.

Count me in too 😍

Well, color me surprised at the interest in the new quartz Tanks!

I think it shows a generosity of spirit among the Puristi. A simple but well-executed quartz gets respect, along with uber-high horology perpetual calendars. Good coverage of the watch spectrum! Ano “I’ll take that perpetual now, thank you” Nuevo

If i’m not mistaken, this one has always been quartz? I’d prefer a manual but it is what it is .. and how else are we gonna scratch the jlc reverso rouge itch..

By: Echi : May 28th, 2021-06:29

Also, i think quartz would work for this Cartier but won’t work with a JLC reverso rouge. The latter HAS TO BE manual

If only it had a manual winding movement....

Can’t argue with you on that one ;-)

By: Echi : May 28th, 2021-06:22

Hehehe... ;)

Looks beautiful and classy, which is of course unsurprising with Cartier...I bet you won't be disappointed despite the quartz movement! ;-)

By: FabR : May 28th, 2021-05:51

That's lovely

By: Arronax : May 28th, 2021-06:45

Having myself rediscovered the merit of quartz I couldn't agree more! I may have preferred another color for the cabochon but maybe too monochromatic: ...

well chosen...sensual and classy in my eyes !

the other version of Tank with photovoltaic dial is also interesting !! enjoy the wait & pls share wrist shots once you've the rouge on your wrist. Best, mahesh.,

I’m hoping for an early arrival, mahesh. Wrist shots, oh yes, definitely.

It will be interesting to see the traditional-looking solar model in this Tank series, too. How did they make those tiny holes so the light can pass through the dial??

i agree...putting in such a practical use for such a technology...makes it a cool Cartier !

By: mahesh : May 28th, 2021-21:52

These holes are really invisible

You cant see the difference between the SolarBeat and the Quartz version.

I like it a lot.

By: Watchonthewrist : May 28th, 2021-09:13

I am also waiting to see one in person and try it on the wrist. Would love to add a Cartier like this
