Hi there,

I'm after a Cartier Tank for my wife for her 30th.

I see there are a fair few different models and face styles...

Could someone please explain the different models and also what I need to spend? I was thinking roughly 1k but not sure if that gets me anything?

She has said she likes that style and wants a metal strap.


Thanks in advance!!

I'd be interested if anyone knew of any good deals going on new, ladies Cartier Tank watches at the moment! Due to a last minute decision for Mrs Dom9 to fly back to my parents with me at Christmas, her Christmas Cartier is still somewhat 'fictional' and will need to appear in the next couple of days!

Do WoS sell at a discount this time of year? I assume the best deals to be had are actually not at Cartier themselves (though maybe worth an ask?)... Should contact Dom H, really, as well!

You should be able to negotiate some discount through an AD. 20%?

Not sure if this helps but Mrs F has her heart set on what she said was a stainless Tank with diamonds either side of the face.
On speaking to Watchfinder, it appears it isn't stainless but white gold and instead of a £2995 price it's £19,995.....

However, you can have a stainless tank customised with diamonds but it does not add the relevant cost to the value of the watch.

Would be interested to know of any decent deals to as this has been a 'wishlist' present now for a few years.

So be careful of what one you get....

2012 is likely to be a diamond year for us, so she can make do with stainless at Christmas!

I've used Dom H on here before and although he is on holiday in Austria at the moment, we have spoken on FB and he is pricing something up for me and I will report back here when its done.

He usually sorts a good discount and we are non-dom in the UK now, so should work out rather nicely for us, with any luck. Highly recommend getting in touch with him if you guys are interested.
