Daniel, I think you’ll be perfectly fine with the Tank Solo Small.

Here’s a pic of my Cartier Tank Must large on my 6.4 inch wrist:

And below is my brother’s Cartier Tank Must large with bracelet on his 6.5 inch wrist:

Could we go smaller? Sure!

Both of those look incredible, thanks for sharing! I may just have to try on the Large at an AD!

 

I wore Tank LC in older size 24mm x 30mm and I have 6.2 inch wrist. These watches are meant to be worn smaller so the whole brancard would glistened when the light reflects to it. I’ve seen some pictures here with large and I’m not too impressed by it. The watch are meant to be small and subtle. There are reasons why dress shoes are made to be sleek and not oversized like a Balenciaga sneaker.

I think you should try the Tank Must in small size as well. They are truer to large Tank LC size with 2mm in lug width reduction.

Thanks for affirming this. I totally agree. End of the day, anyone can wear anything but to me there’s something about the original proportions which is intrinsic to its timeless design and aesthetic.

 

hello,

here's a 24x30 tank, on my 6.3 wrist. A larger size would be too big for me i think....

 

Looks fantastic!

The Tanks seem to look better on the smaller side relative to the wrist. It's a shame as like many others i want the Tank XL as it's not quartz and it has the lovely guilloche but alas, it is too big for my 6.5" wrist. It fits but it doesn't exude the same classic presence of a Tank. I know because i tried my wife's small Tank Solo on and it looks well proportioned haha.

Totally, if they had the smaller sizes in automatic that'd be the cherry on top. Would love to see a pic of the Small on your wrist!

 

I actually prefer the smaller tank, but the lack of second hand is the reason why I gravitate towards a XL

 

With my 7.5" wrist I will need the large or extra large. Plan to visit the boutique to try them on this week.

Just thought i'd give an update here...
Finally got some time to head into my local AD to try on the Small and Large. The Small is VERY small in person, even for my 6.5" wrist.

Ended up going with the Large on bracelet. Couldn't be happier. 'Large' can be a little misleading as it is really isn't that big at all.

You can read forums and scroll through social media pics all day but there's no substitute for trying these on in person if you're looking to pick one up.

Wholeheartedly agree. I was very surprised when trying on the Must line and also a Reverso. The numbers are deceiving. Wrist type (flat, round, etc.) also plays a role.

 

here's my flat 6" wrist (skinny I know) with a small tank solo

 

The small has my vote

 

I think I'd opt for the small for my 6.25" wrist. The large is nice too, but the case sits so flat on the wrist I think the small wears better.

 

I would only do the smaller one. Larger one is too big. Remember a Rectangle shape is a huge surface area compared to a circle

 

I just ordered the small Tank Louis in rose gold for my 6.4 inch wrist. I got the 85th anniversary edition because it's one of the only modern small Cartiers with a manual wound movement. Can't wait to get it. But I agree with folks that either the small or large would work for my wrist, but I just prefer the small for a more classic look.

wow that is a proper sized Cartier. Congrats on your new watch!

 

Hi all,

I've got a 6.3" inch wrist and tend to lean towards smaller/classic sizings of 34-38mm pieces. What from I can gather, the now discontinued Tank Solo small (marketed to ladies) is truest to classic tank unisex sizing at 31x24.4mm and I believe the proportions would suit any small wrist for a more 'classic' feel.

Perhaps that the Large Must may work for small wrists too but tend to think even that will be a little large for my taste...

So can you help me:

Did anyone opt for the Small Tank Solo and could you share some pics if you have them?
Or even pics of the Tank Must Large on small wrists would be much appreciated.
Particularly on the bracelets!

Thanks!
Daniel

Give the Tank Must Medium a try if your wrist is really 6.3", you might be happier with it if you veer towards smaller watch cases in the first place. But definitely try on the Large as well, it's not that "large" on the wrist, you'll probably prefer it.
