I have decided to get my Cartier Tank Francaise serviced and then sold, It was a 40th Birthday present 13 years ago and I’ve never really loved it. Thought I’d just wear for a couple of days before it’s posted off in a Jiffy bag.
Personally, I think the Tank Francaise is a beautiful watch. One of the MOST beautiful.On women it's the sexiest look. I've never met a woman wearing one who wasn't worth talking to.
On men, things become more tricky. The design is square-edged, masculine and based upon a first world war tank, But it can look feminine, more so because it's quite a small watch by today's standards. I have got one and I will never sell it, but I only wear it now when I am wearing a suit. It fits well under a cuff.
Get it sized for her (slightly large) and I am sure she will be delighted. Cartier is a jeweller and it's a lovely piece of jewellery, which will have greater value because it used to be yours. That's about as cool as 21st birthday presents get.

Nice. Was that the one off TZ SC
Sure was. Some great 'photos on that sales thread, much better than my rushed effort above.It came with two Everest bands, one black and one orange. If anyone is considering them for their Rolex then go ahead, easily the best "rubber" straps that I've handled, so much so in fact that I'm considering swapping the bracelet for the black strap today and I love my sports/diver bracelet combos!

I did a similar thing a couple of years ago. Wife bought one for my 40th and I never really wore it. Was going to sell it but suggested she try it on as by todays size standards it is quite small for a man but pretty much spot on for a woman. She loved it and now wears it every week although I have to occasionally remind her that it still belongs to me ;-) . By way of compensation I got one of these last year and feel much more at home with it on my wrist.
