I have always admired Steve's Cartier tank watch but have no intention of spending that much money anymore.
So I have been hunting for a tank style watch for a while at a reasonable cost.
Well I found an absolute copy of the Cartier tank produced by Rotary at a fraction of the cost (3% in fact).
So I had to have it and with apologies to Steve for the blatant copy, here it is.

Re: New Arrival
Very smart Kevin. Congratulations.
On a minor technically, isn't Steve's (AVO) Tank a steel / silver version?

Re: New Arrival
Hi Guy
You are quite correct with regards to the colour, but the actual face and layout is the same and I think Cartier do a gold version as well.

Re: New Arrival
Nice pick up Kevin. I used to have a very similar Rotary some years ago with the silver case and black strap.
3% of the price of the Tank too...bargain!
