Really?!
I am just so used to +2 -3 (Patek) and +3 -2 (Lange) that anything outside these tolerances make me nervous. Yes I know, a silly perfectionist! 
The Crash Redieuse
Cartier will be producing just 50 pieces of the Crash Radieuse where the dial shows elements of a shock wave. The watch measures 42mm x 23.3mm so quite wearable. I am wondering what my fellow purists think of this recreation of the Crash watch. That is ye...
I LOVE the crash watches!
So yes, would wear a watch like this anyday. Thx for sharing! br, Dirk
Thank you Dirk for your enthusiastic feedback!
I hope to try one on next month at the SIHH. Some watches are to be worn, others only to be admired. I hope this will be the former
I must confess Alkiro
that I am not so sure about the shock waves. Hmmm, must really see the watch in the flesh. Thanks for replying.
I just googled the skeleton crash in platinum
and am not too keen on it as I prefer this skeleton instead - the new tank cintree Exquisite!! ...
I agree with you Sham, the skeleton is too much, Alkiro.
And I find a little air of Munch, for the Crash ! It is not ? ...
I need to get over the
+13 -5 daily tolerance of the watch. I am just so spoilt by Pateks!!!

It's a Cartier Tank!
Accuracy is a bonus. It's beautiful. You can have it adjusted!!! You need it!
You make a compelling argument Mike!
It certainly is beautiful and you are making me feel that I actually do need it which is worrying (for my finances)!! It is almost like saying one should marry a super model as she is beautiful while a good personality would be a bonus. Pardon the analogy...
For someone who has been divorced
four times, you can understand for me personally, it would be a monumental problem!!!
Just tell Wife #4 she's a little late to the game
and there's a Cartier that needs acquiring.
that was 4 years ago Mike
And she must have known about the Tank Cintree Skeleton way before Cartier did as she took me to the cleaners (almost)!!
It is quite interesting that since being unmarried
I have spent a lot time in this forum and collecting watches. So much safer, so much cheaper!!
Imagine you put this on when you suffer from a hang over
Not the best day to wear it. Generally: I am so sure about this crash watch. The use of YG makes it appealing though ...
Fortunately, Moritz,
I don't drink!!! Only water believe it or not?!! Yes, yellow gold triumphs for once!
Just like the new re-issue of the Panthere
and the new re-issue of the Tank Francaise, onlu small and medium models, Cartier is launching this new Crash watch as a pure ladies watch.
Ah!!! Here's the answer!
Buy The Crash and the Cintrée for the 4 women in your (former) life. Then...tell them you can't figure out which of them should get the watches so you'll keep them until such time as everyone can agree (not a chance) and you can see the wisdom of their de...
when you say 'keep them'
Are you referring to the watches or ex wives?!! Anyway, I can see you are encouraging a bloodbath!! You are not a divorce attorney by any chance are you?!
The watches, silly!
And no...do I sound like I have good ideas when it comes to a division of property?! Bloodbath is putting it mildly if you take my advice. But you still should. Those watches will look wonderful on your wrist as you make your way to Hades.
in a plane
About to take off to Hades (I think you know it as London!). You take care Mike and chat soon!
Six very busy days
Tomorrow, it will be goodbye Aston, then, an evening reception at Seiko (any excuse to try on the Eichi II again!). Will be meeting watchonthewrist in Amsterdam on Saturday to hand deliver a watch to him! Then hopefully a meal with Miranda on Sunday befor...
Undoubtedly
a good thing especially as I have a lovely partner in Kuala Lumpur (not a super model!!)
