The Cartier Tank Must with the Cor de Chasseur dial is one of the most requested pieces we carry, and this replica gets the essentials right: the deep burgundy lacquered dial, the rectangular Tank case, and the Roman numerals that make the design instantly readable. If you want that look without a boutique waitlist, start with the small stainless steel model on a matching leather strap — the version most buyers end up keeping — then weigh the options below against your wrist size and how you plan to wear it.

Materials, Sizing, and Specs

The case is cut from 316L stainless steel and finished with a high-polish mirror surface that picks up the same flat, architectural lines as the original. The small version measures roughly 29 x 22 mm and the large roughly 33 x 25 mm, with strap widths of 16 mm and 18 mm respectively. The dial is lacquered rather than printed, which is what gives the burgundy its depth and slight sheen under indoor light. The crystal is sapphire, so daily desk and doorframe contact will not dull it. Water resistance is rated to 30 meters, which covers rain and handwashing but not swimming.

Which size should you choose?

Under a 6.5-inch wrist, the small case looks proportionally correct; above that, the large frame fills the wrist properly. When in doubt, the small is the safer, more classic Tank proportion.

How close is it to the original?

The dial color, numeral font, and case profile are the strong points, and the sapphire crystal is a genuine upgrade over mineral glass. The movement is quartz, matching the modern Tank Must rather than the older mechanical versions.

Is the burgundy dial accurate to photos?

The lacquer shifts from near-black in low light to a clear oxblood red in daylight, so expect it to look darker indoors than in bright product shots.
