A superb wristshot of the Cartier Asymetrique by our friend Hororgasm
Kevin has just published this superb wristshot of the Tank Asymetrique:
Do you notice:
- the crown on the left?
- and the little surprise due to the double arabic 9 figure? Do you have an explanation for this on this specific version? I don't know it. I know that the Asymetrique was reknown for the use of Arabic figures (with the Tank Oblique for example). Maybe it is a tribute to this feature.
If you look at the wristshot published by GEO several years ago, you will spot a lot of differences:

The hands, the case, the location of the railroad and I don't mention a lot of additionial details...
The Asymetrique was introduced in 1936. It became an inconic watch... and I would love to see it back in the collection.
