Bossart Posted January 28, 2009 Report Posted January 28, 2009 (edited) Liked this little Cartier Tank Francaise as the face on it seemed to be very close to the real deal. Once I got it I checked and it is. It's quartz so no crap movement assembly issues, the dial is right with the correct gilloche pattern, hands are OK (blued but black to look at), date window is fine, case is good, back is correct, bracelet OK. Though I'll probably ditch the bracelet in favour of a simple black strap. Pretty good for under $70 and 6 day delivery from Malaysia - Surely this is what rep buying is all about. Well I'm happy....

That's exactly what rep buying is all about...buying something you like at a price point that doesn't make you feel guilty. Congrats and thanks for posting this.
Bossart Posted February 3, 2009 Author Report Posted February 3, 2009 Well I took off the bracelet and fitted a nice soft leather german strap. Suddenly the Cartier looks more elegant....in fact more genuine all together.....I like it. And here's the gen model... Amazing what a little black leather can do....LOL...
Toadtorrent Posted February 3, 2009 Report Posted February 3, 2009 I was going to suggest you adding a glazed gen croc strap to that...in both black and dark brown...2 totally different looks...and I agree, much more elegant.
