Howdy,

I would be very cautious with this this one.

The Solo has a rectangular crystal where the corners are essentially 90 degrees, the corners of your crystal appear rounded.

The marking on the case back appear inconsistent with a Solo back. Both in the order of the text and the appearance of the text.

Again, I would use caution on this one.

The back of the case looks off - all of the type is too large. And the sapphire in the crown looks too small. Google Cartier Stainless Steel Tank, look at some images, and judge for yourself - box & papers don't mean squat.

The only way to know for sure is to take it to a Cartier AD and have them authenticate it.
