Price Matching on Watches & Jewellery
We are official stockists of Cartier watches here at Banks Lyon, which means our customers benefit from 100% authenticity and the manufacturer’s warranty. Your Cartier warranty covers a range of defects, but only if found to be defective due to a manufacturing fault. If this is the case, the watch can be repaired or replaced completely free. As standard, this warranty is 2 years for all Cartier models. However, if you register your watch with Cartier Care after purchase, you will benefit from 8 years of warranty.
There are many advantages to extending your warranty, including:
It also includes technical diagnostics and advice, should you need it. This technical diagnostic involves inspections to check precision, amplitude, and water resistance, for example, which makes sure that the watch is working optimally. The registration process is straightforward and will only take a few minutes of your time. Importantly, this registration is entirely free and does not require you to sign up for any additional services or make any payments. It is simply a way to enhance the protection of the watch you already own.
If you are struggling to register your watch or would like more information about the warranty of your timepiece, we are more than happy to help. We work closely with Cartier, and our team are incredibly knowledgeable and experienced in dealing with this luxury watchmaker.
Purchasing a Cartier Tank Louis watch from an authorised dealer or official stockist is the best way to not only ensure you have a genuine timepiece but also benefit from a range of additional services and aftercare options. For example, we can help you register for Cartier Care, which extends your standard International Manufacturer’s Warranty to 8 years.
As Cartier watch specialists, the team at Banks Lyon have invaluable knowledge and experience with the luxury watch brand, meaning we offer our customers the best possible service and ongoing support. Whether you want to explore our personal shopper service and allow us to help you choose the best timepiece for you, or you would like to book a repair or service, we have the facilities and experience to do so.
Cartier Tank Louis watches are available in hand-wound manual models, which have a power reserve of up to 72 hours. This mechanical movement of your watch must be manually wound once every three days to ensure complete accuracy. Thankfully, winding your Tank Louis watch is simple:
At this stage, make sure you do not overwind the spring once it is fully wound. Then, the process is complete.
When choosing your Cartier Tank Louis watch, it is important to consider whether you would like a manually wound watch or if this is not a feature that matters to you. Manually wound watches have benefits and drawbacks. For example, many people opt for hand-wound models because of their aesthetics; having a full view of the mechanical movements is great for watch enthusiasts. On the contrary, some people may be off-put by having to manually wind their watch; the choice is entirely up to you.
This watch collection gets its name from its creator, Louis Cartier. Worn by the watchmaker himself, this range was initially designed as both a unisex dress watch. It provided the wearer with a luxurious timepiece and set the standard for all following Tank watches. With Art Deco influences and modern embellishments, such as the parallel brancards, it was, and still is, an exceptional choice for a high-end timepiece.
There is an extensive catalogue of models to choose from, in a range of both masculine and more feminine designs. For example, typically, a black or darker-coloured strap is viewed as a masculine choice. Similarly, we have watches available with diamonds adorning the perimeter of the dial, which women tend to opt for. However, there are no rules when it comes to selecting the Cartier Tank Louis watch that you want, and the watch experts here at Banks Lyon are more than happy to help you find the timepiece that works best for you.
