Decided To get a dress watch - Cartier Tank a vis dragging hour

May 28, 2018,16:53 PM
 

Found a nearly unworn Cartier tank a vis and was able to trade my Rolex BLNR for it. Though I’ve never seen the watch before going for the trade, I did as much research as I could regarding the Cartier cpcp line and just fell in love with it. I love the fact that only subtle differences set it apart from a normal production Cartier.

Love the movement and love the watch at all👍🏻

I think you'll find the minute hand's fallen off. ;-)

That’s one hell of an Omega

Didn’t even know they had a jumping hour. Love the style of the minute hand.

That is an amazing version of the tank.

You made a great trade. The CPCPs were/are a very special bunch of watches; some of the best Cartier made at the turn of the Century.

Thank you!

Can’t believe I didn’t discover cpcp watches sooner.

Very true [nt]

Congratulations; really beautiful piece with that stunning 9902MC caliber! Although I would not call it a dress watch, since it is quite thick, I think it is much more wearable and versitale than a real dress watch. You might know that the Tank a Vis was ... 

Is that yellow gold? Very very nice and quite rare in the wild

I wish i can get a yellow gold tank manual winding. always think yellow is more appropriate for a classic dress watch. Congratulations ! The Rolex BLNR can be had in the future should you wish.
