Cartier Tank Solo Replica (AF Factory) – Swiss Ronda Movement & Blued Hands

Introduction: Perfection in Simplicity

The Cartier Tank Solo is a legend of design. Because of its clean lines, it is also one of the hardest watches to replicate perfectly—any flaw is instantly visible. AF Factory has risen to the challenge, creating a Cartier Tank Solo Replica that is virtually indistinguishable from the genuine article. By using the same Swiss components, they have blurred the line between replica and original.

Why Choose the AF Factory Version?

• The “Swiss Heart”: Unlike cheaper versions that use Asian clone movements, AF Factory installs a genuine Swiss Ronda Quartz movement. This is the exact same caliber used by Cartier in the authentic Tank Solo. You get the same reliability, accuracy, and battery life.
• Thermally Blued Hands: The hands on this replica are not painted blue. They are made of steel and heat-treated until they turn a deep, metallic blue. They catch the light beautifully, just like the real thing.
• Synthetic Spinel Cabochon: The crown features a true synthetic blue spinel, not a cheap plastic bead. It has the correct dark blue hue and rounded shape.

On The Wrist
At just 5.5mm thick, the watch disappears on the wrist. It is the ultimate dress watch—understated, elegant, and timeless. Whether you choose the Small (Ladies) or Large (Unisex) size, it fits perfectly under any cuff.

5. (FAQ)

Q: Is the movement really Swiss?
A: Yes. AF Factory sources genuine Ronda quartz movements from Switzerland. When you open the caseback, you will see “SWISS” and “RONDA” stamped on the movement gold plates.

Q: Does the watch tick loudly?
A: No. The Swiss quartz movement is very quiet. Also, the Tank Solo has no seconds hand, so there is no visual “ticking” motion to give away that it is a quartz watch.

Q: Is the strap real crocodile leather?
A: The standard strap is high-quality calf leather embossed with an alligator pattern. It is soft and durable. For an even more premium look, we recommend upgrading to a real alligator strap later.

Q: What is the difference between Small and Large?
A: The Small model is designed for women with petite wrists. The Large model is the classic unisex size, suitable for men with smaller wrists or women who prefer a modern, slightly larger look.
