Tank Louis Cartier Small 22mm

How it wears

Wears larger than its 22 mm case suggests

Cartier Tank Louis Cartier Small 22mm measures 29.5 mm lug-to-lug on a 22 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.34 against a database median of 1.18. That span is shorter than 99% of the 7,421 watches in this database and shorter than 91% of the 196 Cartier watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 33 mm (1.30 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 40 mm (1.57 in) it starts to look compact. Below 29.5 mm (1.16 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.
