Do not buy this or any other high end watches from Amazon!!!! This is a grey market item sold directly by Amazon that is not supported by a Cartier warranty. Moreover, the watch arrived inoperable and although I returned it the same day it was delivered, Amazon has refused to accept the return because of "scratches" on the clasp. The watch has never been worn. Please do not make the same mistake I made. Trust me, the savings are not worth it. BTW, I have purchased over 2100 items on Amazon and was shocked that they would behave this way.

spent my bonus on this classic + elegant, automatic-movement timepiece 11 years ago. it's style + loveliness remains till today! I've received countless compliments on it.

this midsize face sits low + snug. it contours to the shape of the wrist + is perfectly sized. all the metal + links are smooth.. not like some of the other super-expensive brands I tried.

I had this watch on everyday + the 'battle-scar' scratches show the rough wear I put it through :) after 10 years, the automatic-movement needed an 'over-haul' due to wear + tear. since this is my 1 + only luxury watch, I thought it would last forever + had not taken better care of it by sending it for regular servicing.. it only had 1 service in it's 8th year.

still extremely satisfied with this finely crafted timeless beauty!

The item above is not sold by Amazon, and I did not buy my watch from Amazon, so this review only pertains to the watch itself. However, in response to the man who says Amazon-sold watches aren't warrantied, this is wrong. If the seller is Amazon, then Amazon states "All Cartier watches purchased Direct from Amazon.com are covered by a limited two-year warranty at no additional cost (see details). Applies only to products sold by Amazon.com. Does not apply to products sold on our site by third-party merchants or through third-party areas such as Amazon.com Marketplace."

Anyway, I was going to purchase this midsize 2-tone from Amazon last year but I stepped into a well-known watch retailer to try on the watch first. When pressed, I let them know I was going to buy it on Amazon, and asked them if they could match that price. They did!

The watch is absolutely drop-dead gorgeous. I tried on the women's and the mid-size. I have thin arms but the mid-sized still looked better to me, so I got that one. I've wanted a Cartier tank since I was a teenager. I will prize this piece for the rest of my life.

***Addendum: when I reviewed this item, it was not sold by Amazon, but I see that now the item is available through Amazon again. The reviews span different sellers apparently. So please pay attention to who the seller is.

I had been looking for a Cartier watch. The exact watch was priced over $2,0000 more in retail store. I took watch to Cartier to have links removed and they verified it was Cartier. Love my watch, love the price.
