  • In this episode, Matt and Cameron explore the history of Cartier, a name associated with many things: monarchical crown jewels, massive diamonds, and the classic, rectangular Tank watch, now in production for nearly 100 years. We confuse ourselves with all the little variants of the tank, check out some of Cartier's more modern lineup, and discuss the significance of the company in the history of watchmaking.
    We also discuss the book 'The Radium Girls' by Kate Moore and take a look at the offerings from Blu Shark Straps!

    I hope Matt never stops his takes on what the people in historical photos must have been like in real life.

    look at a photo of a WWI tank from the top...and you will see why it is called the Tank.

      A French WWI tank to be exact (i.e. Renault FT).

    lol - My older brother had a '78 Lincoln Continental MK V and it no shit had the Cartier dash clock. It also had an 8-track player. It was in excellent condition, and it was CHEAP. I think it cost him less than $1K in '89, and he got $750 trade in in '92. Probably the nicest car he ever owned.

    Speaking of the Radium Girls, you guys should do an episode on the history of Panerai, they have some fascinating stories.

    Difference between the Tank LC and regular tank is the case...the top of the case on the long sides are rounded on the LC...the regular tank is flat and squared-off.
    Great shows guys. Thanks!

    Really enjoying the episode. Just curious about "13" at 12 o'clock or Paris Chronograph .....anyone can explain? Not a typo for sure :)

    • @WBush-uc9pe
      @WBush-uc9pe 6 лет назад

      I had the same question at 30:50

    • @WBush-uc9pe
      @WBush-uc9pe 6 лет назад

      Cartier's "whimsical period" perhaps?

    • @thewatchmakersworkshop
      @thewatchmakersworkshop 6 лет назад +2

      Paul B., 13 is symbolic for the address of the first Cartier boutique in Paris at 13 Rue De La Paix. Definitely odd, but once you know about it I think it is kind of fun and different.

      That was a *very* gentle rebuke.
      Last time I missed the usual slot, she punched my nose while screaming "ASSHOLE".

    If I could take away one word from each guy, for Matt, it would be "dope" and for Cameron, it would be "right?"
