In this video, Christian and Rolly dive into one of the most iconic artists of the 20th century, Andy Warhol, and his iconic timepiece, the Cartier Tank. Cartier is a brand that, while they make watches, is equally iconic for their design across the board (probably even more so than the watches themselves). So what does Warhol have to do with it?
Well, Andy was notorious for wearing a Cartier Tank and never winding it. In his own words, "I wear a Tank because it's the watch to wear." To him, the mechanics of the watch didn't matter nearly as much as the look the watch not only had, but the way it helped to complete his look. This image helped propel Cartier a bit extra into the world of necessity for those who desire to appear elegant and refined.

The Tank is actually my grail watch. I finally saw one in the flesh a couple months ago - I thought it would be amazing. It was so much more amazing than I had expected!
Seiko makes a tank watch that is very similar to the Cartier. I just bought one for my birthday and it’s beautiful. Definitely worth trying.
Cartier brand is a force to be reckoned with! Their sales figures are impressive, ranking number 3 just below Rolex and Omega. They make such great designs that many other watch brands can't event compete with
Roly losing weight !
Cartier make some of the most nicely designed watches ever, it's really in Rolex league.
On the contrary, Rolex can’t even see Cartier’s taillights in terms of design. ;)
@@xJan008x I think I now agree with you.
Congratulations to Alberto. Gorgeous watch.
Fell in love with a Cartier Tank back when I was around 7 years old and saw it at a shop window display. I used to wear free plastic wristwatches from McDonald’s Kid Meals. Now that I’m a designer and a watch enthusiast I know that Cartier will be the first luxury watch brand I will purchase. Or maybe even the last as well.
Love to wear the Tank louis 24x30 sized. It brings me to the old fashion vintage style of some decades ago. Worn by Muhammad Ali, Steve Mcqueen, Giorgio Armani, Andy Warrol, Clarke Gable, Cary Grant, Truman Capote, Alain Deloin, Gary Cooper... it's exquisit, tres chic IMHO
Carlo Filippo Pezzoli I saw your comment below Hodinkee video. You are so damn right can not agree more. May I
Totally get what your saying . I own a tank solo and of course it’s an eta based movement and not on any high end horological sphere . Who cares , -pair it with the right strap and it’s pure class , style personified! We have other pieces to scratch the technical issues this is about aesthetic beauty and style ...
When looking at watches in general I often tend to gravitate towards watches with more quality movements, because I feel like I have to, to get some value for money.
When looking at Cartier, that's literally never the case. I don't even take note of whether they're quartz or mechanical.
Who remembers when Christian called it car-tee-er?
We all have our moments hahahaha
kakh chiay 😂
Please do a review of the new Cartier Santos 🙏🏾🙏🏾
more cartier tanks on theo and harris please!!! Ready to pull the trigger on x2!!!!
Congrats Alberto!
Great job guys. Rolly, great pronunciation! “Tienes que hablar español hombre!” Love it.
This was cool Christian. Your dad looks a lot more relaxed in front of the camera this episode, lovely to see.
Thanks Stanley!! He's definitely growing more and more accustomed as we progress.
superb video guys!! greetings from Madrid!!! I'm so in love with Cartier that I can't say witch is my favorite creation!!! Thank you guys
Congratulations to the winner.
Congratulations Alberto Garcia!
Christian Would you recommend the cartier tank as my first luxury watch or would you say to go for something more traditional such as a submariner or gmt.
toby shipp as your first purchase I think tank is an amazing choice.
Go with your gut
Buy what you like and will enjoy the most, not what is recommended.
If you like the style, the JLC Reverso is another option, personal favorite
Neither. Wear what the masses don't wear. Go against the grain for once in your life.
big fan of liquor run, Rollie rocks
Congratulations Alberto.
where'd you get your sweater? i really like it!
the way you organized the giveaway is very elegant, well done
Cartier indeed is true beauty
Congratulation Alberto!!!!
Why you didn't mentioned Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso?
Watches are jewellery.
Watches are, first and foremost, pieces of jewellery.
Depends on your use case
Andy Warhol has an interesting and valid perspective on watches, but I feel like a lot of watch enthusiasts would turn their nose if someone said that about a Daniel Wellington or a MVMT watch.
Ahhhhh... Christian and Pops-you are my TRIBE!! Muchas Gracias🙏🏻❤️😁. The watches, the wines, the stories, the passion and the big LOVE. Thank you both. This, and T&H generally-makes my day. ...Keep ‘em comin’. (And yes, you too Anna!!❤️). xo -ty
Thank you man!!! Kind words!!!
Hey guys... I recently bought a Omega seamaster from 1950s. Though it works fine, I would want to service it before I start using it. I went to a serving store in Boston, he says it would cost around $400 for servicing and polishing of the dial and bracelet. Is it worth it or am I paying too much for it? BTW he is a certified Rolex and Omega servicer. I hope to get some answers.
sure it does
Love the stories...show the watches also!
One of my favourite series on youtube!
7:03 "First of all, that's SUPER ELITIST!" rants Christian as his father, wearing a scarf indoors, sips his wine from ESS-SPAN-YUH and contemplates the tranquil background piano melody.
...also, please send me that watch for free.
Nice room! The black wall looks awesome!
Thank you!!!
I love Cartier❤️
ROLLY!! Great show!
Nice video.
Cartier has some of the most beautiful watches.
Personally my favourite is a modern Cartier.
The Drive de Cartier.
But there are versions of the Tank that are jus wonderful.
Keep up the great work.
Drive is ugly af, Tank is timeless beauty
What a beautiful watch giveaway
wish I was Alberto 💯
Interesting video! But can't remember non of it anymore because I was only eyeballing your dads watch. Looks like the Cartier ref: 15716 if I'm not mistaken. Wise choice 👍
I don’t think that I would put the word “cool” and Andy Warhol in the same sentence EVER! But maybe my memory is even worse than I thought.
golfbuddy1969 if you hung out with Jim Morrison you are cool...
Tal 3 uh...cool people are cool...they don’t need help. But I’m sure that Jim Morrison’s podiatrist, or roadies, appreciates your assessment.
Christian you should research Gay Talese...he wrote the article “Frank Sinatra has a cold”...I believe you would relate to him...he is a newspaper reporter...
I'll look into it!!!! Thanks
Background looking like the Dark Theme on YT, love it keep up the good reporting Christian!
Thats a great watch to get as a gift,congrats!
Simple, elegant, conservative and history, love Cartier!!!!....tank that is
Love and respect the design of watches, but am also enamored by beauty in technological design and function. A mechanical tank or RO or Octo that combines the thin design with the technical prowess to fit a mechanical movement without compromising the design is to me having your cake and eating it too!
Love Cake!!!!!
Wear what’s cool 😎 to you ......
You guys need to talk about Actor Tim Curry's Cartier Tank watches as well!
3:00 that bottle has a mind of his own.
Hhahahahahaha!!! I was dying when I noticed that watching the video back.
Is it worth it to get an automatic tank❓
Thanks for moving the bottle, Anna
Also, that Waltham is a real peach. Very nice giveaway!
Thanks man!!! And I barely even noticed she'd done it while we were filming, so when I saw it in playback I was dying hahaha
I feel like Rolex is too played out and every one has one, but the tank is in a different ball game in my opinion. They can’t ruin what they don’t know about..
I think you’re talking down Cartier’s history as a watch maker, I think it’s a bit of a slap in the face to genuine watch making to say they are a purely a designer.
Love that Spanish varietal
Cartier is definitely my favorite watch brand design-wise and for sure in my top 5 for historical significance.
Agreed!! People tend to forget that Louis Cartier literally invented the first purpose-built wristwatch...kind of a big deal I'd say hahahaha
@@TheoandHarris I certainly agree. In fact, that was the exact instance that I had in mind!!
Very generous. Great giveaway. En hora buena Alberto. Saludos Roly.
This guy reminds me so much of John Mayer on talking watches with hodinkee.
7:11 That legend takes that wine to pound town.
Wine and watch great combination my favourite
Us too!!!!!!! Thanks for watching!!!
Are the give aways also good for international subscribers? :) great video as always btw. 🖒
Thank you Luam!!!
Christian, your dad is looking better than you these days.
Only kidding. He is looking as good as you.
It's a good thing, this way he will be next to you for many more years to come in good health
Great video once again!
Thanks man!!!!
Andy Warhol, Edie Sedgwick, Barbra Rubin, Lew Reed, John Cale and The Velvet Underground & Nico and the rest of the freak show that made up the Warhol Factory.....
Let's not forget Holly Woodlawn, Candy Darling, and Jackie Curtis....and Little Joe and the Sugar Plum Fairy too!
I never visited The Factory, but those were interesting times in NYC....
Warhol shined a light on the simplest of things and sometimes made them look more interesting......or bizarre!
What's funny is, I discovered Andy Warhol through Lew Reed and The Velvet Underground, yet the only reason they were discovered was due to Andy Warhol.
Go figure!!!!
Theo and Harris Curious if you like Lou Reed? (I spelled it Lew for Lewis)
Maybe dad likes him?
seems Gay Talese was mentioned in the past tense. He's still alive!
Sorry, didn't mean it that way!!!
Saw this late and missed out on the Waltham😑
Cartier and Warhol 🙌
更漂亮！beautiful watch.
Love your vids but I don’t care about alcohol like I do about watches. I end up skimming through the parts about the drink - I wish there was just like 10 seconds about it, and then onto watches. Just my opinion though! Hope it helps
nice guies!...slightly stoned!exellent comments ! cherio!
cartier or tudor....
Wow you really do have some rascal jumpers 😂 Great video I wish I was alpha enough to brave a tank. Beautiful looking creation.
Scared your gym buddies will mock you for not wearing a wall clock-sized watch?
Allen D L I have a 36mm Rolex datejust as my daily wearer so no. Also don’t go to the gym anymore. Nice try though bro.
Great story
Thanks man!!!
Magnifique mon très cher
wine bottle without cork...never!
Tank vs reverso?
reverso
That Rolly tank is now available at Theo and Harris. Lmao.
Hahahaha!!!!!
The bottle moved @.@
Andy was about culture. Celebrity. The glitz and glamor of “show business.” It’s well known that he pored over fashion magazines and HOLLVW00D starlet head-shots as a child. Hob-nobbing all day and night with famous movie stars, rockers, athletes, other artists and powerful people must’ve rubbed off on him. Or at least their upper class tastes did anyway…
Problem is we get too academic and intellectual about watches and forgot and sometimes intentionally diminished the feeling towards something.
You guys forgot Oliver Reed.....
Great video, guys
I want a platinum Tank so fucking bad! 😬
So HOT!!!!
Christian I have just subscribed, I love the watches that you have in your selection and your taste. please choose me to be the winner next month! :D haha
Thanks for subscribing buddy!
Hi!! I'm from spain jajaj exactly from Islas Baleares (Menorca) thats a good wine and the watches are awesome😍 very good job ✌️✌️
Thank you very much and thanks for the kind words!!!
You're really going to piss off a lot of watch enthusiasts with this video. Their raison d'etre is the inside of a watch, not the outside.
Hope I won the giveaway ❗️
I never win these giveaways:’(
Keep trying!!!!
ROLLIE
YEEEESSSSSSS!!!!!!!
When a dude like you buys a 6 grand watch, it’s for the design, but when a girl buys a 6 grand piece of jewelry, it’s silly. Stepping on women to get your sense of superiority? It’s 21st century now, get a grip.
Omg I won the giveaway I won the giveaway - but why are you calling me Alberto ?
Hahahahaaaa!!!!
Phirst
The original soy boy.
What's wrong with eating soy sauce?
Christian, please don't ever wear that women's sweater again. It makes my heart hurt.
Hahahaaahhahahaha!!!!
Definitely dont know about Cartier history. Dislike
bro wtf are u wearing how can u leave the house wearing that with dignity? fark id be ashamed
