I love my Cartier, I love small watches. I just never understood the obsession with big flashy watches. JLC Reverso, A. Lange & Söhne Cabaret, Cartier Tank...just gorgeous watches. Love the art-deco movement.
Classic u always bring watches that i don't expect :) btw never said that before but i really like the background music it adds a special atmosphere to ur videos keep up
Congratulations on the new addition to your collection :) I love how Cartier plays with shapes on their fine dress pieces, stands out just enough while staying classic in style and proportions.
Been waiting for this review for days...sick watch..look how elegant and iconic it is. The finishing and detailing is amazing. Love it. Congratulations Marko on this purchase. Wouldnt mind this piece myself.
Such a amazing and beautiful Cartier , so lucky i was able to get one for my Boss a few Months ago , to bad that isnt a automatic like yours . Enjoy it to the max my friend 🤗 looking forward to see your Sartory Billard next
Marko - So sorry for my misspelling below. I’ve been diving into your older videos and wanted to mention that I’ve contacted Sartory Ballard, after watching your video Absolutely amazing and highly responsive micro brand. Bespoke pieces at this price point is something unique. Movements are commonplace but solid & well chosen. Love the fact that you can choose dial material, dial layout, hands and even rotor color. Thank You for your insight. I learn something new from you in each video!
I love that one, congrats and wear it in good health and I agree: it would be great seeing Cartier bringing out a new iteration of this piece, preferably in yellow gold and steel. I am on the Cartier train since a while, right now the Tank Americaine medium automatic is number one on my list. Got a date at my AD soon, let’s see which one I finally will get, the santos Dumont xl is also a hot candidate. Have a great Sunday, cheers 🙏🏻😊
Its obvious that you are really happy and excited to have this watch in your collection 😄 Your eyes are smiling bro hahah. Beautiful watch and another awesome video ❤️
What a stunner, never knew they did one, I love the reverso, so I love this. I was thinking, "yeah, that will be easy to remove the dents, just tap from the back" then you showed us the beautiful finish on the inside! have you got the dents out?
I own the Reverso Tribute and would happily have this Basculante sit alongside it in my collection. I think the flipping mechanisms are unique enough to have them both and not feel like one is a copy of the other
Fabulous video! I have a basculante myself. May I ask you for some advice? I can't seem to ever finish winding the watch - it never gets to giving me any resistance. How long does it normally take for you? Thank you!
I love Cartier watches and I learn about this Basculante for the first time. Wonderful piece, not cheap unfortunately. I like Cartier Drive and I think I will get one sooner or later :)
Awesome review Marco and amazing case design by Cartier, taking the Reverso to a new level. I hope they bring this model back, maybe with an Eastern Arabic dial :D But then it will be really expensive. Maybe an independent or a micro brand could do an Hommage ;)
That santos galbee two tone is beautiful! On my list, but hard to find in perfect condition. Tank francais 1840, louis rondo, tank louis also great cartier watches.
@@SwissWatchGang It doesent look badly beaten. It is one of best looking watches to me, it has antiquesk look to me, that can never outdate, elegant and eye catching but not flashy, just very beautiful watch.
As a big guy you are very brave wearing small square watches - thumbs up. I have to admit he Basculante mechanism is interesting and unique, but in my opinion the Reverso is simpler and more elegant.
Ouaou it’s the first time I hear about it !!! Of course now we have to choose about the Reverso JLC and this one !!! Again many tanks for your content Where did that accent come from ? Sorry for my English
I just bought my Basculante Mecanique back in December. The crown is pretty stiff to wind, but it's being serviced right now so hopefully that gets fixed. If the basculante came out again today, they'd make it way too big (like the tank solo automatic) and probably quartz and make the mechanical versions gold and $15k+.
Beautiful watch, maybe you should do a video explaining and going back to its heritage a little more in detail. People like Princess Diana, Muhd Ali, JFK and many others have all worn the Cartier tank.
You lucky dog! I've been lurking for a tank cpcp for some time now. I'm new to the vintage world and would love to know some reputable places/sellers to look.
Sorry I just commented. I got quite busy lately. Btw, congrats Marko! Wear it in good health! Really love this watch! Especially the Cartier Basculante Paris Collection Priveé version! Aside from the Crash, this one is the rare time when Cartier want to have some fun with watchmaking, and I love it! So what's the next target? Omega Marine 1932 (I could guide you through so that you won't take in the common redialed ones)? Cartier Marine 1932 by Omega? Omega La Magique/Dinosaure? Reverso 101 Gents? A custom Sven Andersen like how you make your Sartory Billard? Oh oh oh..... Hamilton Worldtimer 8984/Hamilton Worldtimer Power is VERY affordable (less than a grand) and a great alternative to the Patek Philippe worldtimer with unique movement to boot that sadly forgotten by everyone (a vintage watch). Omega Museum Collection also nice. JLC Hybris Artistica or Mechanica also cool. Btw check this out th-cam.com/video/KBkPyJk4QYQ/w-d-xo.html
Thank you, was looking for a Basculante for a while now. :) Omega Marine 1932 is nice but quite pricey for my taste, Omega La Magique same, Dinosaure not my style, would rather go for the extra thin Citizen at that point. The Hamilton is great but hard to find :). I don't have a "next one" except if the AP boutique calls but doubt that'll happen this year. I have another Cartier in my sight but will see if I pull the trigger on it: and I have a very very special watch already reserved coming end of year around November so stay tuned :)
Really cool watch!!! I would have trouble making a choice between the Basculante and the Reverso. I own a Cartier Tank Solo XL in steel, and I love it. But if I had the money, I would get a Tank Cintree in gold. To me, that is the most sophisticated and beautiful design Cartier makes. But I also very much like the Tank Americaine, which is (almost) affordable.
GOD BLESS YOU MARCO. I WOULD ABSOLUTELY LOVE BLESSING YOU WITH THOSE CARTIER DREAM WATCHES WHEN I RECEIVE MY BLESSINGS. I CANNOT THANK GOD ENOUGH FOR MY BEAUTIFUL FRIENDS. I AM VERY PROUD OF YOU AND VERY HAPPY FOR YOU.
Great review. I’m looking forward to adding an elegant Cartier to my collection this year or next. I sold a Cartier Tank Louis last year as it was too large on my 18cm wrist. My next Cartier may be a rose gold Santos Dumont.
Definitely love this watch! For me it's more elegant than the Reverso. I have owned a two-tone Santos Dumont XL(with my wife's medium one as a pair) for near one year. Very comfortable and great looking on the wrist. I would also love to own a Santos(especially the rose gold skeleton one) or Tonneau (I just tried and it fitted perfectly).
Marco - Love your Santos. I’m on the hunt for an all steel stainless model. My favorite Cartier piece is the Torture CPCP Monopushoir Chronograph. Manual wind chrono movement developed by Francois Paul Journe, Denis Flageollet and Vianney Halter in the 1990s. As you know, each went on to develop their own amazing independent brands. Amazing design with a movement made horological rockstars. Would love to share a photo on your site. Let me know how. Thanks Marco - Keep up the great work!
I have a new appreciation of Cartier mabe in the last 6-12 months since COVID I had more time to research other brands I think the flipping is cool on the Cartier especially like how your able to put it on a night stand or desk. The reverso system is simplicity at it best not so good as table watch. Like them both with a time only the Cartier wins
Wow, sehr cool, die Tank! Ich plane schon seit langem, mir eine vintage Santos zu kaufen. Kannst du sie empfehlen und trägst du sie oft bzw. ist sie einfach zu kombinieren? Gruss aus Bern
Beautiful watch indeed... but if JLC can produce the Reverso at an attainable price, why would the Basculante cost 20,000 Swiss francs? I would guess there are more components in the Reversos case mechanism than the Basculante, just a guess though. I love my Reverso!
Maybe there's more components in the Basculante, I don't really know that but I assume that as with most special case designs Cartier usually puts a scarce amount on the market so that could fall into that category as well. But, we can just chat about it, nothing we can confirm...
3 years ago I saw once a quartz Basculante for, virtually, 400 bucks but I was almost in bankruptcy. A day hasn't passed without me thinking about that Basculante and getting angry at not having money at that point of my life.
Well depends on the model, this one I bought for CHF 3800 this January and now the cheapest online is around 6000. So yes, Cartier watches are very collectible, just depends on the model. Look at results and growth for the Tortue monopusher last year as one example. And check out the video by Revolution Watch and John Goldberger. :)
@@waqasqureshi3304 No it's not as desirable. The Tank XL is a current production model, mine is not in production anymore and it's from the beginning of the 2000s so slowly becoming a vintage piece. Buy what you like first and foremost and do some research on vintage Cartier if you want to get into it.
I would email you because I don't use social media but you don't have it posted. So. The one thing that makes me crazy with these high complication and high finish watches is the lack of attention to detail. Beautiful displays. For instance the 1815 Tourbillon Longe. Beautiful display and on the cross bar infront of Tourbillon is two screws that are not aligned together and not aligned 12 to 6 or 3 to 9. I have a hard time believing these watch makers are over looking these kinds of details. What else isn't getting attention?
Hey, my email is in my "about" page for next time :). I don't get this obsession with alligned screws (it's often a comment whenever I show my Hublot or other watches with screws on the bezel). It's not important and it's screws, probably hard to allign since I haven't seen a watch which has alligned screws on the dial side so I have no problem with that. :)
@@SwissWatchGang it's just a level of detail. In my mind screws that aren't aligned look out of place. So much work, so much art, and so much precision and then theirs these screws that are definitely part of the over all picture sometimes even blued and their not aligned or following a fibonochi sequence. Maybe diamond screw caps would be better. Ones that are permanent and fit a tool for removal.
Hey, will take a long time until I do it but in the mean time I suggest you watch this one from the legendary Tim Mosso: th-cam.com/video/tMYEz4l9yb0/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=WatchBoxStudios
@@SwissWatchGang thank you for this information! Did it come with box and papers? Don’t think can find these pieces at the prices in Jan anymore! Great video btw - I’m sure you made Cartier a lot more fans!
Hi marco I love UR videos, I am one of the few backers for AVENTI A10 in the indiegogo campaign, after seeing ur video about Aventi AT10 in March 2020, my contribution ID : 322, till date I didn’t receive the watch yet, it’s been almost 11 months, I tired to ask aventi about this through mail, Facebook & Instagram but reply from them till now, could u just help me in this situation, thank u so much Marco and team for UR very informative videos........
Hey Kumaresan, thank you for your support, I really appreciate it! I have forwarded your situation to the Aventi team and they said that they'll get back to you regarding your order. All the best, Marko
Hi Kumaresan, Jesse here from Aventi. Please check your email inbox and get back to me at your earliest convenience. Look forward to speaking with you. Thanks!
Which Cartier model do you like the most or is on your wish list?
Any of the Cartier Crashes!
This is such a cool watch, but the Cartier Crash is superrrr awesome
Love the tank in platnium pre CPCP
Currently looking at a Tank Must 😁
The Cartier Centiree Annivasry watch with Easter Arabic Numerals 👍
The basculante is one of my favorite Cartiers! This is a must for any Cartier enthusiast. Congrats brother 🍾
Agree with you Rob!
WOW fantastic watch! really one of the coolest Cartiers !!!
Thank you !
I love my Cartier, I love small watches. I just never understood the obsession with big flashy watches. JLC Reverso, A. Lange & Söhne Cabaret, Cartier Tank...just gorgeous watches. Love the art-deco movement.
Piaget Altiplano?
At the end it has to fit you, I don't focus that much on the sizes to be honest :)

Congratulations on the new addition to your collection :) I love how Cartier plays with shapes on their fine dress pieces, stands out just enough while staying classic in style and proportions.
Thank you!
This is seriously the coolest thing Cartier has ever made.
I would say I like the JLC Reverso just slightly better, because the flip is easier to do.
The flip in the reverso is easier to do for sure, but you get used to this one as well!

There are unique basculantes with arabic dials but even if you find one they are insanely expensive

I just bought my Basculante Mecanique back in December. The crown is pretty stiff to wind, but it's being serviced right now so hopefully that gets fixed. If the basculante came out again today, they'd make it way too big (like the tank solo automatic) and probably quartz and make the mechanical versions gold and $15k+.
Congrats to yours!
Beautiful watch, maybe you should do a video explaining and going back to its heritage a little more in detail. People like Princess Diana, Muhd Ali, JFK and many others have all worn the Cartier tank.
Maybe in the future yes, good idea to dive more into the brand. :)
How do you wind it ? To the left or to the right ? Thanks ! Beautiful watch !

Hi there. What is the difference between the 2390 and 2405? I understand one is 'mechanic'. However, other than that what is the difference? Size?
2390 is manual winding and the 2405 is a smaller size and quartz.
Wow, sehr cool, die Tank!

It is as elegant as the reverso but this has so much more

I just got my basculante - ok it’s just the quartz and it does not have the guilloche dial but I am quite happy with it. Now on with the hunt
Dents or removed monogram? Lovely watch either way ..
I would say dents, looks like it got hit a lot..
Beautiful watch indeed... but if JLC can produce the Reverso at an attainable price, why would the Basculante cost 20,000 Swiss francs? I would guess there are more components in the Reversos case mechanism than the Basculante, just a guess though. I love my Reverso!

Maybe diamond screw caps would be better. Ones that are permanent and fit a tool for removal.
@@SwissWatchGang and I'm looking at your about page. You'd think I could see it if unaligned screws bother me. But I don't see it. 😆
Did he say 80.1cm or 18.1cm wrist?
Can you review the patek 5712r
Hey, will take a long time until I do it but in the mean time I suggest you watch this one from the legendary Tim Mosso: th-cam.com/video/tMYEz4l9yb0/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=WatchBoxStudios
Usually how much does a Basculante stainless steel cost?
I paid CHF 3'800.- for mine beginning of January.
@@SwissWatchGang thank you for this information! Did it come with box and papers? Don’t think can find these pieces at the prices in Jan anymore! Great video btw - I’m sure you made Cartier a lot more fans!
Perhaps you could have mentioned the price...
You're right, I always do, somehow it slipped my mind this time or went missing along the way, I paid CHF 3'800.- for mine beginning of January 2021.
@@SwissWatchGang thank you. Very good price for this nice watch.
@@imranchowdhury4972 I agree, but hard to find at this price anymore
