(New) 5196G vs (Used) Cartier Tank Louis large manual wind
Currently, I have tank solo large (quartz) as a dress watch. However, I want to flip this and with extra cash, I want to buy a nice manual wind dress watch. I'm torn between two watches, which are:
2017 released Tank Louis Cartier large (in-house manual wind): http://www.cartier.com/en-us/collect...ier-watch.html and 5196G (I don't think a picture is necessary as most people know how this one looks!) Price-wise, 5196G(used) and tank lc(new) are very similar here in Korea. Please provide your thoughts. T(h)ank You! |

I really like the 5196g, so that would be my vote. The tank is nice, but I prefer the Reverso for rectangular watches

I vote 5196 although I chose the 5196J I think the 5196 line is a great choice.

Always better when new, and of these two I actually prefer the looks of the Cartier.
