His initial impressions highlight the watch's captivating dial dynamics and the unexpected pleasure it brings to daily wear. This article delves into the subtle details that make the Tank Obus a fascinating subject for collectors, particularly its movement and aesthetic variations.
I had the opportunity to try on a Ballon Bleu this weekend. I'm always surprised at how much I like Cartier on the wrist. Unfortunately no pic...and no purchase. The CNG Aquamatic will have to suffice.
…there are also some examples with a CPCP dial.. I don’t think they were sold concurrently but my Cartier knowledge is limited on that point. Thinking about it, I’ll try and find some old Cartier ads/catalogues from that era to be more precise. Cheers, Andy
I was just looking at some different strap colour options too…maybe blue, burgundy or something more outlandish. Still musing 🤔 on that one. 👊🍻
Great looking watch and pics! Cheers Greg 🍻👌
How is the backside? Solid caseback or nice movement?
It was a serendipitous internet find.
