CARTIER TANK FRANCAISE 1:1 Women's Replica Watch Authentic vs. Fake Comparison

The model of this replica watch is the CARTIER TANK FRANCAISE WSTA0065. It comes in two sizes: small (25.7mm x 20mm) and medium (30mm x 25mm). The comparison images in this article use the small size. The genuine watch is on the left, and the replica is on the right in the images below.

Case:

The watch case features a brushed finish with a square design. The factory used a genuine watch to create a 1:1 replica.

Dial:

The new CARTIER TANK dial has a silver tone with a sunburst effect radiating from the center. The hands are made from blue steel, crafted through a high-temperature process, identical to the genuine watch.

Case Size:

Upon measurement with calipers, the case size is exactly the same as the genuine one.

Side of the Watch:

The crown features an octagonal design, matching the square shape of the case. The top of the crown is adorned with a blue gemstone, and the color of the gem is identical to that of the authentic watch.

Movement:

Like the genuine version, it uses a Swiss-imported quartz movement, which is ideal for women as it offers precise timekeeping and has a low failure rate.

Below is an image of the watch disassembled: you can see that all the components are exactly the same as the genuine model. Most of the parts are interchangeable with the authentic version.

Strap/Clasp:

The metal strap has a matte finish, and the design includes a folding clasp.

Each of these replica watches comes with a unique serial number. Personally, I think Cartier's quartz models offer excellent value, as they have the same craftsmanship as the genuine versions, are priced at only around $300, and are highly durable.
