In this video, Christian and Rolly dive into one of the most iconic artists of the 20th century, Andy Warhol, and his iconic timepiece, the Cartier Tank. Cartier is a brand that, while they make watches, is equally iconic for their design across the board (probably even more so than the watches themselves). So what does Warhol have to do with it?
Well, Andy was notorious for wearing a Cartier Tank and never winding it. In his own words, "I wear a Tank because it's the watch to wear." To him, the mechanics of the watch didn't matter nearly as much as the look the watch not only had, but the way it helped to complete his look. This image helped propel Cartier a bit extra into the world of necessity for those who desire to appear elegant and refined.

Love to wear the Tank louis 24x30 sized. It brings me to the old fashion vintage style of some decades ago. Worn by Muhammad Ali, Steve Mcqueen, Giorgio Armani, Andy Warrol, Clarke Gable, Cary Grant, Truman Capote, Alain Deloin, Gary Cooper... it's exquisit, tres chic IMHO

Congratulations to Alberto. Gorgeous watch. Fell in love with a Cartier Tank back when I was around 7 years old and saw it at a shop window display. I used to wear free plastic wristwatches from McDonald’s Kid Meals. Now that I’m a designer and a watch enthusiast I know that Cartier will be the first luxury watch brand I will purchase. Or maybe even the last as well.

Totally get what your saying . I own a tank solo and of course it’s an eta based movement and not on any high end horological sphere . Who cares , -pair it with the right strap and it’s pure class , style personified! We have other pieces to scratch the technical issues this is about aesthetic beauty and style ...

@simonandersen7942 3 жыл бұрын

When looking at watches in general I often tend to gravitate towards watches with more quality movements, because I feel like I have to, to get some value for money. When looking at Cartier, that's literally never the case. I don't even take note of whether they're quartz or mechanical.

Hey guys... I recently bought a Omega seamaster from 1950s. Though it works fine, I would want to service it before I start using it. I went to a serving store in Boston, he says it would cost around $400 for servicing and polishing of the dial and bracelet. Is it worth it or am I paying too much for it? BTW he is a certified Rolex and Omega servicer. I hope to get some answers.

Andy Warhol, Edie Sedgwick, Barbra Rubin, Lew Reed, John Cale and The Velvet Underground & Nico and the rest of the freak show that made up the Warhol Factory..... Let's not forget Holly Woodlawn, Candy Darling, and Jackie Curtis....and Little Joe and the Sugar Plum Fairy too! I never visited The Factory, but those were interesting times in NYC.... Warhol shined a light on the simplest of things and sometimes made them look more interesting......or bizarre! What's funny is, I discovered Andy Warhol through Lew Reed and The Velvet Underground, yet the only reason they were discovered was due to Andy Warhol.

Andy was about culture. Celebrity. The glitz and glamor of “show business.” It’s well known that he pored over fashion magazines and HOLLVW00D starlet head-shots as a child. Hob-nobbing all day and night with famous movie stars, rockers, athletes, other artists and powerful people must’ve rubbed off on him. Or at least their upper class tastes did anyway…
