The panthere is the most beautiful elegant and comfortable watch for women from Cartier
I couldn't agree more!
Agreed but the tank could give off the same look...and women, we tend to go for watches as jewellery pieces.
The Panthere Ruban Is the bee's knees ❤
Panthere is a classic.
BTW, a Quartz watch is not a lesser watch. I like a mechanical watch as much as the next guy, (I have an Omega) but let’s be real here. Watches ARE jewelry and a Quartz watch is more practical and far more accurate than a mechanical one. I have both and am not “embarrassed” by my Quartz watches. As always, love the Gringa videos! 😎⌚️🥃
I couldn’t agree more with this entire comment! 💕
More and more, I am drawn to the elegant classic styling of the Cartier watch catalog. Thank you for this fun excursion!
"...and don't need a Panerai to prove it." Ouch.
LOLLLL! 💀💀 I thought that was cold! Even for me! 😂🙈
Spot on 😂
Your video editing skills are absolutely mind boggling! Great video as always, been thinking about the Santos ADLC large lately. Beautiful watch
WHAAAT! This has officially made my DAY! I really have been trying to improve my editing! 🙈💕 hoping to keep getting a bit better and better! I’m currently experimenting with something that will be my most ambitious edit to date! 🙈✨ hopefully coming next Sunday!
@@BrittPearceWatches I loved it, it was a breath of fresh air from a computer screen! 😂
Thank you Britt for you light hearted perspective on the hobby. I’ve had along day and this brought me some joy before calling it a night!
I just bought the Tank LC YG. Was skeptical since it is a quartz, but after wearing it I can truly see why it is probably the most notorious watch the brand has . I love it 🙂
Had a Santos for a while. Recently added a Tank Must XL. Said to myself: "Okay. I've completed my Cartier journey. I have everything I'll ever want." Then my wife and I were in NYC and we stopped in the Carter store on Fifth Avenue. I saw the Ballon Bleu 40mm in rose gold in real life for the first time and realized that Abraham Maslow was wrong. There is a need hierarchy above self-actualization, and it is Ballon Bleu 40mm in rose gold.
Oh thisbis just BRILLIANT! Famous last words “I’ve completed my ______ journey” 😜 there’s always something new to fall in love with!! 💕💕 you know! I think I need to try on the ballin bleu again! Did you end up buying the Ballon Bleu?!?! 😱 you need it!
@@BrittPearceWatches Not yet, but it's on the list.
The ranking system is brilliant! Rumor has it that the solar powered Tank has been discontinued. Can you confirm?
El Ballon Bleu es realmente hermoso 🔥
Yes - I have seen one it is breathtakingly sophisticated and powerful on the wrist - well done. (Every wrist is different and I was never sure about the pebble shape on my smaller wrist - whether it would embrace me or wobble around! If yours has the deployment clasp that extra weight might balance up the weight.)
Britt,…thanks much for sharing your thoughts and insights. Really enjoyed this video. After wearing the same watch for 29 years (?) I acquired a Santos de Cartier Large Grey and a Cartier Tank Must XL with a leather strap. The Santos is so versatile. I am digging the fact that the Tank Must XL is automatic and has the date and second hand. Cartier is class.
So happy to see you rank the Pasha de Cartier in the heart eyes category, as I look down and gaze lovingly at my own 35mm Pasha on my wrist…thanks for this entertaining video!
The Santos really is amazing. Purchased one a few weeks ago and it has become my go to.
Of course the Panthère is also for men. I love mine!!!
Going out on a limb here but looking to garner some support: I'm getting interested in the brand new (2023) Tank Francaise Large. Even as a man with a 7" wrist, I still think it kind of works! Much chunkier and sportier than other Tank options. Does anyone else get this, anyone AT ALL?!? 😂
Love your channel & so happy I found it. I have had the same watch my beautiful Mama gave to me at 18 ( i'm now 39). It's a Michel Herbelin. It holds so much sentimental value that for the last 3 years I have tried numerous Rolex, Omega, JLC etc. but they just dont seem to do it for me & I just cannot decide what I want. Until now, with thanks to your help. Tomorrow, i'm going to buy a Santos. I haven't had my Herbelin off my wrist in 20 years in all occasions & thats really what I want again. Something timeless, classy & perfect for all occasions be it work, black tie, the pub or diving with sharks in the ocean it will do it all & look bloody good doing it. Thanks for your videos & infectious love of Cartier. You should defo be on commission ❤🔥💥💫🔥
I completely agree with your rankings - you have great taste. I am biased, but I also love the Cartier Tortue in all styles! I have the vintage Cartier Tortue Dauphine ladies version and just love how classic and understated it is.
The way you feel about the Tortue is the way I felt about the discontinuation of the Clé.
I loved the crafting. Notebook, hand drawn, cut outs. I would give it a 🔥
Great video! I’m buying my first “nice” watch and love cartier. I’m torn between the tank must (classic white dial) or a vintage Santos Galbée🫠😂
Loved your comment about men not needing a Panerai to prove their manliness! I just had this conversation last week. It seems, some women think the firm image gets softened if a man wears a smaller watch OR even a salmon dial. What do you think?
You know, I so agree! I also just think different women are attracted to different styles! ^_^ I think there is nothing more stylish than a man in a Tank or a Santos! Also.. SALMON DIALS!
Love this video. Cartier de Santos medium is definitely fire. Love my Blue Tank Must as well. Unfortunately my Dumont is gone. I just don't really wear two-tone. I hope to get a Tank Louis Large in gold someday. The only full gold they have for the Dumont is X-Large that's not quartz. I just can't buy quartz full gold watch
Great you are talking about Cartier 😊 I’m a fan of the classic versions that are quite small - for example the Santos Carrée or Galbée. On my list is the Tank Must large model now though. It’s just really an icon. Yes, the Tank Louis would be ideal, but then it’s £11k.
Great, informative, and entertaining video! I would love a follow up video / short of your thoughts on the Baignoire. Some are saying it will become the new It Girl watch
I totally believe it could be the next it girl watch!!! 😱💕💕💕 it’s so pretty!
One of my favorite brands 🤌🔥
Wearing the rose gold skeleton today.
I own a stainless Pasha with large date. It was my daily wear for about 15 years. Still wear it regularly. The Cintree is quite possibly the most elegant watch of all time. I also love the Cloche.
Wow, Britt the soothsayer!
I’m watching this in June ‘24 way after the Tortue Mono pusher has been unveiled at Watches and Wonders.
Great work 🧐
If I may add a favorite from the discontinued section.
Cartier Roadster….
with the Quick change strap technology
🔥 🔥 🔥
Panthere Ruban ❤
I’m not much of a tank guy, but I appreciate their lineage and there’s a lot of nuance within their design language. It’s kind of humorous to hear you describe one of their watches as have a rather sporty feature - a seconds hand.
When it comes to tank cases, I must admit, the Reverso variants hold my attention a bit longer, they seem less precious.
Britt…Great Video and Spot On with your HOT picks!!
You are fire Britt!!
Love this as ever 🎉
Thanks for the video Britt!
I didn't expect to enjoy this video because I'm not a Cartier fan. I was wrong! Your delivery is awesome, thanks for the great video!
Love your art work :) I would have to rate the Solarbeat Tank Must as God Tier!
I have a Cartier Santos (Carree) gold and steel model that my mother gave me for my 21st. It was my daily watch for 15 years and I still wear it occasionally now. Even though it is small by todays standards, it still works for me!
Watch geeks love quartz, watch snobs dismiss it.
Oh can we get an amen!?!?! I second this!
We should accept modernity and embrace traditions
And Cartier dabbles in both
Maybe im a snob but heres my take, the beauty of having something so simple and complex work and powered solely by something so simple and complex as a rotor or a wind its just wow. Cant say quartz watches are ugly, they just dont appeal to me as much as an automatic... am I a snob... maybe... 🤷♂️
I love quartz in a cheap watch.
Perfectly fine with my Casio Sapphire or Tissot Motogp being Quartz.
If I'm paying $3000 for a watch, it better not be a quartz.
If that makes me a snob so be it.
@@travr6 you have made the best point lol, is all about the money！
I just ordered two new Cartier: a yellow gold Tortue from the CPCP line and a yellow gold Santos Dumont Ultra Thin from 1995. I’m super excited to see them next week!
Beautiful list. It looks like you spent thousands of dollars on a computer to render the high-quality list (I quite like the hand-drawn list, actually). What are your thoughts on the Maillon de Cartier? Also, it is sad to hear that the Tortue has been discontinued. I think the Clé de Cartier and the Drive de Cartier have also been discontinued (I wonder how you feel about those watches too). I think Cartier is an interesting watch brand with a unique style that I very much enjoy.
Ronde struck me as the most everyday Cartier watch, which is why I picked it.
There is a Tank for every day of the week and then some. I only have a Louis, an Americaine, a Divan, a MC and a Must Solar but I would like to add a Francais. Not keen on the Anglais but then you have the Basculante which is very nice and saw a massive price jump about a year ago for the large manual wind. Then there are ones like the Obus and the CPCP models which are gorgeous. Oh and the Solo! So many Tanks, so little money!
Gringa Sunday the best day of the week 🔥🕺🎶
As I said, all Cartiers have a place in my heart 👌🏻.
On another topic………Hopefully you can bring more budget friendly brands to the channel B.
You know, some Japanese brands, low to mid end Swiss watches will be cool also for a lot of people and I think that could boost the popularity of your channel even more.
Also it will be awesome if you record your visits to your AD and do a video trying on different pieces.
Sorry for the long comment haha
Have a great Sunday B. 👍🏻
It's that magical day of the week!!
I REALLY wanted to like the Santos, but when I actually tried it on, it just 'wasn't for me'. I ended up getting a JLC Reverso Gran Sport.
Cartier watches are beautiful, however they wear more like 'a bracelet with a watch' rather than a 'watch on a bracelet'....all very subjective, obviously.
What happened to the Drive de Cartier?...a very nice sporty watch, sadly missing a bit of WR.
Thanks for the video, loved the ranking system :)
Gah! That’s why you gotta try before you buy! 🙈✨ you made an amazing choice with the JLC! 😱
Britt, I have to say I have never been more educated in Cartier than actually watching this simplified video. Us Canadians like simple. I never really thought about Cartier but, that Ronde honestly I love it. Never apologize for your opinion. Thanks again Britt. Cheers 🤗
Hwy Britt, where would you put the Cartier Drive? I really like that one
I love how you admit you don't have a cutout for a specific watch, and instead of editing it out and getting a pic of that watch, you just draw one. Stay gold, Ponygirl.
Bahaha honestly! I didn't see the Tortue being gone! ^_^ So we had to adapt and overcome! ;) haha!
Yep, that was cinematography magic.
Great Outsiders reference, btw.
I love Cartier, especially quartz you can find so many vintage deals...
It’s soooo true! 😱
The floating magnum at the end 😂
😂😂 only the real ones who make it to the end know!
I like Cartier. I just can’t pull the trigger on one. Thanks Britt
Gotta start Gringa bingo: when she says quhwaffee, aboot, and references Jenni. Love this channel
What are your thoughts on the little face lift they recently have the francaise? I agree it’s a little bit of a snooze at times but there is something with the new dial.
I prefer the previous model, which I own ❤
I think this list is perfectly spot on minus the Tank Française because I think that thing is just bad ass and I'm only into sport/tool watches. After that, I love the Santos 100 DLC/Titanium Chrono, the Tortue Monopusher, Pascha Chrono and the Ronde being that it's kind of an elegant field watch especially with the 24h inner dial. Still, it's a great list to set your sights on goal-wise and organise your prospective collection
The newer Ronde de Cartier is going to be my next watch. I love it so much that I might be selling my Tank to fund it.
The habit of Cartier discontinuing models without really announcing it strikes again. My first Cartier is a Tank Anglaise I bought used in early 2021 and I only learned it was a discontinued model when I was at a Cartier boutique to buy my blue dialed Santos. I felt similar pangs of sadness when I learned the Drive was discontinued as it was one of the designs that really jumped out at me and made me take a good look at the brand's lineup. Obviously I went with different watches as the Drive didn't quite fit what I wanted (it seemed to have the same identity crisis as the Ronde) but it still stung.
It's nice to see some of the less popular aka round models getting recognition. I didn't know what to make of the Pasha when I first saw it but it's a design that's grown on me over time as I see more of how it plays with shapes despite still being a circular case.
9:10 oooh shots fired at Tim Write 🤣
Hahaha never would I ever!
Today, I learned more about Cartier than I thought I would ever learn. Awesome graphics for your ranking table. 😁
Whaaaat! This is much too kind and it has made my day! 🙈✨ I’m so glad there was sometjing to learn in here!
Hahaha as for graphics… we are trying out different things here at gringa tube! 😂
Great video. The watch community needs more insight into watch collecting rather than the standard review of watches. Also not enough content for women out there. Thanks Britt!
You know, I was just thinking today I've been doing too many of these more watch collecting videos rather than reviews! ;) I am DYING to do a review! haha! I just can't get my hands on enough watches! ^_^
I’m torn between xl tank must and large steel Santos for a one watch collection. I’d get alligator straps for them. What do you think?
GAH!!! I love! This is the hardest decision ever!!! There truly is no bad choices.
SO! I have both - a tank and a Santos. I wear my Santos a lot more. 🙈 but I’m not sure if that’s because it is newer! But I’m leaning more Santos!
And I bloody love an alligator strap!!! Get it now while you still can 😜
I love Cartier and own three!!!!! Great video, Gringa 😀! Agree with most of your rankings and personally can't get enough Cartiers, I even like the Diver de Cartier. The Pasha is the one we disagree, I don't get it
Not my favorite brand but well produced Britt. The personal drawing was a nice touch. Bravo 🛀🛀🛀
Gringa, I am looking for a good watch roll. Still happy with your TYT? Would you recommend? Thanks!!
Britt six years ago I purchased my Yellow gold mondo-usher for $12,500 new that was the price then. Love love it my fav Cartier.
You are soooo right regarding the Tank. The new Française is an abomination in the eye of the Lord. The Cintrée, however, is one of the nicest watches they ever made. Regrettably it is out of my reach. Specially since John Goldberger bought them all, the bastard. Somewhere in the middle is the solo.
That said, mineral glass is dogshit.
In the mean time, my only Cartier is a Santos medium. My wife has the Tank Solo L.
Hey, love the videos and thank you for the entertainment. I'm currently considering the Tank Must Solarbeat or the Santos Dumont Large. Can I get your opinion on both pieces since technically you have both?
OH BOOOSH! This is a very hard choice! And you know, before I was "into" watches, the only 2 watches I really liked was the Santos and the Tank. I ended up getting teh Tank first (and loving it) and then getting the Santos later (but now I wear the Santos waaaay more than I wear the Tank!) ;)
Have you tried both on?! Both are fantastic watches! But man, my heart is with the Santos I think! As much as I blimmin love the Tank. My only worry with the solar beat is servicing. I am sure the servicing is crazy expensive on it. But don't quote me on that. ;) I might be getting mixed up.
@Britt Pearce Heyyy, thanks for sharing! Appreciate it loads. I'm definitely in the same boat as you were previously. I really wanted the Tank and tired it on and love it. However at the AD, I also saw the Dumont in L and in all cheekyness, gave it a try and well, my love for that was newfound and equal and ever since, it became a hard decision between both. I was considering between the Solarbeat and the regular Quartz. No issue on either tbh. So the "servicing" aspect isn't really a deal breaker. Just that right now, I can't decide between either. Gosh, having a watch hobby is really getting me down a rabbit hole.🥹
Tier lists from you are really fun, bonus points for creative presentation 🙂
Whaaat! Thank you so much! 💕✨
Not a poop in the range :) Personally I am offended by your meh of the Francaise, it's the only Tank for me but that's because it's the lovechild of the Tank Louis and The King, the Santos Dumont. We all had some fun.
Great video for a Sunday evening, thanks Britt 👌🏻 May I ask the ref no of the Tank @3:46? looks dope, couldn't find it in Cartier page...
edit: found it. It's from Collection Privée Cartier Paris, full guilloche dial, flower rosette at center seconds, platinum case, Cartier Paris text on dial with a full exhibit caseback and rectangular caliber. LE to 50pcs..
Pure Class
Gah! I was going to say! These ones are actually insanely rare! Beautiful watches. A grail of mine! 😍💕💕💕
got my first cartier watch (steel panthere small) and still lusting for the all black tank 🤩
I love my 18ct Cartier Tank LC, but where’s the Baignoire on your table? Or the Tank Basculante for that matter? 🤔
NICE job Britt!
Oh thank you so much!
Thought your fire emoji was Wilson from the Tom Hanks film 😂
😂😂 ong!!! That is so much more accurate than the fire! Hahaha
I guess my fav is the Santos Blue because blue is my fav color and that ending with the bouncing Magnum like a screen saver for the early 90's lol
Gah! I love the blue Santos!!! So dang charming! 💕💕✨
Sunday is Gringa-day. My weekend is complete
Oh BLESS! It’s the magical time of the week! 🙈✨
Very educational, thanks! What about the Roadster?
I'm sad that you didn't rank the crash but hey you got me loving the pasha which I always thought was a big lump of metal so yay!
OMG: you don’t love either the panthere or the Ronde. Those are the two I’m looking to get lol
I bought a tank for my wife and now I defo need to add a two tone santos in my collection, my dilemma is if I should buy the new one or a vintage one 🤔🤔
I HAD THE SAME DILEMMA!!! And I ended up getting a modern version ;) Are you looking at Santos de Cartier or a Dumont?! If Santos de Cartier I'd recommend new all the way!
@@BrittPearceWatches the santos the Cartier so we can both wear it easily with the new bracelet adjustments 🙈🙈best way to make my wife and myself happy at the same time, no need to justify why I bought another watch if she can wear it aswell 😂😂
Good job, always entertaining!You forgot the Roadster
In a time before I really knew about watches my [what I would now call a] grail watch was a Cartier Balon Bleu Chronograph. I thought if I had that, I could never want for another.
They discontinued it, but during lockdowns I saw it second hand in an AD. I went to try it on and was just underwhelmed with it on the wrist. 😔
Never meet your heroes!
You know, this is why it is so important to try a watch on first!
@@BrittPearceWatches Yep, had exactly the same experience with the Zenith Defy 21
No one minds a quick rank on the weekend.........
I spotted a Cartier Santos on the wrist of George Santos. It was the one with the gray bezel.
I know the Cartier Crash wasn’t mentioned but maybe that’s because it’s in a league of its own, I would place it in the straight fire 🔥category for sure!
I know it's not sold anymore but just wanted to let you know about Cle de Cartier - the one in my profile pic! I guess it can be seen as the sportier looking version of the Tortue, with unfortunately 30m of WR.
Great video, Brittany, thank you. Not a Cartier fan. Still... that Tank de Must XL calls me. I tell it to shut up! I can't afford you right now! And yet... There I am, looking at it on line stores. Good thing the closest AD is an hour and fifteen away, and a crappy drive at that.
I have never been on time anywhere in my life, it is something that I do not give importance to, with that in mind I have never been interested in wearing or even having a watch, but I saw something in that (Tank Must) that I cannot describe is like If I had been transported to the first time I heard music or tried an ice cream, how elegant and lovely is that design, my God.
This ranking scale is way better than those digital ones 😂 much more fun
😂😂🙈 I was just trying something new! I’m glad you enjoyed! ✨✨
The only thing holding me back from getting a Santos is that the clasps aren't to my taste design-wise or aesthetically. I'd rather go for the Santos Dumont personally. I just feel like Cartier watches belong on a leather strap rather than a metal bracelet (though the Santos bracelet itself is an engineering marvel). Your preference may vary.
I have a Cartier de santos on a navy blue croc strap with a deployment clasp. The watch is sophisticated and super comfortable . The curved case hugs the wrist like an old friend.
What about the Cloche de Cartier?
Also, is it only me that thought your fire emoji looked like a knock off rolex logo? 🤪
💀😂 they are onto me and my subliminal tricks!
I have recently become obsessed with the Tortue Monopoussoir, an outstanding piece of kit. The fact that some heavy hitters in the industry were involved in its creation including François-Paul Journe make it that much more exciting. Too bad we never got to see more collaborations, but we did get the Vagabondage out of it.
True!!
Why do they need the Ronde when you can get a Ballon Bleu or even a Pasha?
Oh, this video is so 🤌🏽
DeepHazelJay has had a NAME CHANGE?!?!
Another rad video, I love Cartier! I have a Dumont XL:) wasn’t it designed for Alberto in 1904 not 1911? The Santos was released in 1911 but the Dumont was 04 methinks. Fire! Smiley Face!;)
I pretty much agree with your ranking (except for the Panthère, I would put it higher, it's so lovely...). But you forgot the Baignoire !!
Any chance you know the reference # of the watch at 3:46?
not for everyone but the Seatimer is one of my all time fave Cartiers.
Love the video! Tank solo was also my first watch! But… I cannot believe you put Panthere sooo low… you are breaking my heart! It’s true it’s not a perfect watch in traditional sense. 😢
When speaking about Cartier watch, British royals had a massive impact on popularity of certain model. Tank Francaise is Princess Diana watch! It cannot be ranked the lowest either! Hahahaha
The Santos looks stunning on you! ❤
YOU KNOW! I do feel like a did the panthere dirty! ^_^
I am willing to talk Tank Francaise! But I still think it is where it is meant to be! 😜💕💕 hahah! I really would love to do an entire video about pop culture and it’s effect on watches! I find it endlessly fascinating! 😱💕💕
Please do it! Pop culture and celebrities influence watches so much.
I wonder how the new Tank Francaise will do... For me, It looks so different vs original.
So I have a Cartier Santos and a Panerai and I don't know where I stand now.
Bahaha!
my poor Americane. I still think the time only Americane are way better on the wrist - the pre CPCP. The cintree is unwearable on my wrist 😂
Hi - How about the Drive and Calibre Diver from Cartier? Both discontinued, I know..
Ty for this video! Cartier tank is my aspiration. I just don’t understand why the Louis has mineral crystal. It’s really a disappointment especially at that price. I hope to get a solarbeat with a steel bracelet in a year and a half.
Is it possible to change the bracelet on the French tank?
No Drive!? No Rotonde!? No Calibre!? No Crash!? No this, no that?
Haha! WELL! I was ranking current catalogue! 😜 which excludes almost everything listed here! But ronde was ranked at the end! 😜💕✨
