Hi good people,
I’m looking at my next watch purchase and I’m looking at 3 very different watches, all of them I love but I’m not sure which one to go for now (all around 2.5k-3k). I’ll do second hand.
The watches are:
- IWC Mark XVIII
- Tudor Black Bay 58 Blue
- Cartier Tank Solo / Tank Must new
Facts about me:
- current collection, rolex date 15200 white dial, omega speedmaster reduced, longines conquest heritage, hamilton mil-w-46374b and gshock dw5600.
- working at a top luxury brand hq
- small wrist size (can’t really pull bigger than 41-42mm)
Seems like a dress watch would fill a need. I say Cartier
They are all nice watches. I have the bb58 gild and tank must large. I like the iwc but their value for money in my opinion isn’t the best considering their movement. The pilot is an everyday beater, sporty and robust. The tank is a dress watch and more like jewelry. I advise you to get it on a bracelet though and switch for a strap if you want. So it’s up to personal preference and style.

I’d you got for the tank, I’d say must over solo everyday. It’s just much better fitting.
IWC
Tough choices. In order for me
Tudor
IWC
Cartier
Pilot / Dive / Dress… pick the one you think you’ll wear the most.

I like the IWC the most but I’m a big guy. They look silly on smaller wrists. The Cartier is probably your watch. Enjoy it for me because I look silly wearing a Tank.
