Tank Must XL 31mm

How it wears

Wears larger than its 31 mm case suggests

Cartier Tank Must XL 31mm measures 41 mm lug-to-lug on a 31 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.32 against a database median of 1.18. That span is shorter than 90% of the 7,421 watches in this database and shorter than 48% of the 196 Cartier watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 46 mm (1.81 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 55 mm (2.17 in) it starts to look compact. Below 41 mm (1.61 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.
