1 Answer
What are rectangular watches called?
Rectangular watches are sometimes called tanks. Cartier pioneered the design and named it after the Renault tanks that the French military used during World War I. A watch with a rectangular case with rounded corners is a tonneau, named after the French word for barrel. On 1stDibs, shop a wide range of watches.
