Cartier Prive Tank Normale 25.7mm
Tank Normale
How it wears
Wears larger than its 25.7 mm case suggests
Cartier Prive Tank Normale 25.7mm measures 32.6 mm lug-to-lug on a 25.7 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.27 against a database median of 1.18. That span is shorter than 98% of the 8,054 watches in this database and shorter than 80% of the 196 Cartier watches listed.
A flat wrist width of 37 mm (1.46 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 44 mm (1.73 in) it starts to look compact. Below 32.6 mm (1.28 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.
At 6.85 mm thick it is on the slim side, thinner than 97% of the watches with a listed thickness.
