Tank Asymétrique CPCP 23mm
Tank Asymétrique CPCP 1996
How it wears
Wears larger than its 23 mm case suggests
Cartier Tank Asymétrique CPCP 23mm measures 33 mm lug-to-lug on a 23 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.43 against a database median of 1.18. That span is shorter than 97% of the 7,421 watches in this database and shorter than 79% 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 33 mm (1.30 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.
