Does Rolex make a tank watch?
1 Answer
No, Rolex did not carry a line of tank watches. It was Cartier who introduced the Tank Watch in 1917, inspired by the Renault tanks used on the Western Front. The flat boxy look by Cartier certainly inspired some Rolex designs, but it did not copy the line name used by Cartier.
