AF Factory Edition — Leather Strap
AF factory is widely recognized on collector forums as the definitive benchmark for the Cartier Tank series, specifically excelling in the dial printing and case geometry of the Américaine WSTA0050. This release prioritizes structural accuracy, achieving a highly impressive 7.0mm case thickness that mirrors the delicate proportions expected from a formal dress watch.
Powered by an ultra-slim clone caliber, the movement architecture is designed to minimize vertical height while maintaining reliable daily operation. The mechanism provides a power reserve of Approximately 36 hours, aligning with standard expectations for non-extended power reserve clones. The engineering focuses on dimensional stability rather than elaborate finishing.
The case is constructed from 316L stainless steel, measuring exactly 41.6mm by 22.6mm, and weighing a meticulously verified 41.6 grams. The dial features the correct roman numeral proportions and a subtle micro-texture, contrasted by thermally treated blued-steel hand profiles. Silver White Dial Annotation: The silver white tone exhibits the correct matte finish under direct lighting, matching the subdued elegance of the original.
