I wish I had MORE money. Hahaha!!!
Great reportage SJX!
One of these days, a Cartier will surely grace my wrist. This new iteration makes the visualization process really easier. That Louis Cartier looks very tempting now that it has that Piaget movement. Would also be interesting to see the Anglaise in strap.
You have wrist shots?
Great photography as well 
So far, from the SIHH offerings, I love Cartier and JLC the most from a general perspective. Different design philosophies and both are going at it very carefully but with very great resolve. Unbelievable.
i'd like to type some more praises but I think I'd be repeating myself :p
Thank you.
A comprehensive look at Cartier's novelties
Divided into sections for easy reading. - SJX
Part I: New Tanks including Tank Anglaise
The Tank Anglaise is the third major iteration of the Cartier Tank after the Tank Francaise and Tank Americaine. It is also the largest, with broad case flanks. It is a natural evolution of the Tank, since most of the current Tank models, like the bestsel...
I love the Louis Cartier and the Tank Folle...
But the Tank Anglaise, no ! I don't find Cartier elegancy in it! I was not convinced by it. Thanks SJX. Fx

Part II: Fine Watchmaking
Cartier Fine Watchmaking at SIHH 2012 comprises a solid and varied range. At the very top is a new calibre in the minute repeater, but there are also useful new entry level timepieces, like the new annual calendar with an eminently practical display. We’l...
I like to see the Tourbillon in the Rotonde case.
I like a lot this case, its elegancy. And the pocket watch is... WOW! Thanks for the pics ! Fx
We'll be seeing a lot more of the Rotonde case in the future
I reckon. I do find the new tourbillon Rotonde a bit boring though. - SJX
Part III: Cartier d'Art
Next are the Cartier d’Art watches. These demonstrate various artistic skills like enamelling and mosaic, usually depicting various animals. This year sees a new technique – flattened straw – used for the Rotonde de Cartier with koala mo...
Part IV: Jewellery timepieces
Now for the jewellery watches. As is expected from a jeweller a mind-boggling number of jewellery watches were unveiled. The animal themed watches are all beautiful, especially the delightful panda secret watch. There are also the various standard cases l...

Thanks Echi. Tank LC and Anglaise
Sorry I don't have wristshots of either. But the Tank LC stills well despite its size. It feels very elegant, though it reminds me of a biscuit somewhat! The Tank Anglaise on strap will come next year or the year after I am sure. - SJX
Thank you for a fantastic report and all the effor that goes into doing this. Much
appreciated, Best Imran
