Q: What defines the Cartier Tank Française Ref. 2384? A: Introduced in 1996, the Tank Française updated the legacy of the original Tank watch with a chain-link bracelet seamlessly integrated into the case sidebars. This specific model from circa 2010 features a petite 20mm stainless steel case, a classic white dial with Roman numerals, blued-steel sword-shaped hands, and the signature octagonal crown set with a synthetic spinel.
Q: Is this watch battery-operated? A: Yes, this Ref. 2384 is powered by a reliable Cartier quartz movement. This ensures accurate timekeeping and ease of use, as it does not require daily winding like mechanical automatic models. The battery typically requires replacement every 2 to 3 years.
Q: What is the size of this model? A: This is the Small Model (PM), measuring 20mm in width. It is a refined, understated size designed to sit elegantly on smaller wrists, often acting as a piece of jewellery as much as a timepiece.
Q: Will the watch fit my wrist? A: This specific timepiece is sized to fit a wrist circumference of up to 16.5 cm. The stainless steel bracelet offers a comfortable fit and links can be removed to reduce the size, but please note that extra links are not included with this listing.
Q: Is the watch water-resistant? A: The watch was originally designed with water resistance suitable for daily wear (approx. 30 metres). However, as a pre-owned piece from circa 2010, we cannot guarantee the original seals are still intact without a recent pressure test. We recommend treating the watch as splash-resistant only and keeping it away from showers or swimming pools.
Q: What is the condition of this watch? A: This piece is in Very Good condition. It exhibits light scratches on the case, case back, and bracelet, which are consistent with careful use over the years. The internal movement is in very good condition.
Q: Does it have a sapphire crystal? A: Yes, this model features a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. This ensures the dial remains clear and legible, protecting the watch face from daily wear far better than mineral glass or acrylic.
Q: What is included with the purchase? A: This watch is listed as "no accessories," meaning it is sold as the watch only and does not come with the original box or papers. It will be delivered in A Retro Tale's secure packaging.
Q: Is there a warranty? A: Yes, A Retro Tale offers a 12-month movement warranty covering mechanical function. We also strictly examine and authenticate every piece to ensure you are purchasing a genuine Cartier item.
