Tank Française Tank Francaise Medium 27mm

How it wears

Wears true to its 27 mm case size

Cartier Tank Française Tank Francaise Medium 27mm measures 31.9 mm lug-to-lug on a 27 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.18 against a database median of 1.18. That span is shorter than 98% of the 7,421 watches in this database and shorter than 81% of the 196 Cartier watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 36 mm (1.42 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 43 mm (1.69 in) it starts to look compact. Below 31.9 mm (1.26 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.
