The Cartier Tank Francaise of Omega - Reference 3999 from 1959

[@ole-emil]

I own one of these with a gold case back. It’s also plated, but with a heavier 40 microns gold plating. Let me know if you want more information about it 😊

[@TimelessHistoryChannel]

Thank you for the comment. I believe your maybe a different reference.

[@TimelessHistoryChannel]

Wow! Thank you for sharing and the link via Instagram. Now I know there is a 40 microns plated version. The entire case is plated. Quite a surprise.

What a beautiful watch ❤

I have 2 stainless steel, they are very hard to find. (From Thailand) ❤

[@TimelessHistoryChannel]

Oh wow!

[@CleverSmart123]

I have the same reference (3999 5) in full steel without crosshair dial. Wears lovely, really happy with it!

[@TimelessHistoryChannel]

Nice! Many watch collectors do not know that this tank reference wears quite big on the wrist.

Hi. I own a 1930s 18c square Omega. Its beautiful although the dial is suffering with some patina , it works great and I am happy with it . I do need a replacement one piece strap for this watch as the one I am currently using is not the correct one . Could you point me in the right direction with reguards to purchasing the correct strap for this beautiful time piece . I also have a 1970 seamaster requiring some minor restoration and service .Ref 166-110 . Cal 1002. Can you recommend a trusted business to carry out this work ?

Very nice I like these style of watch very cool 😊 I'll have to check my Chrono24 history but I came so close to buying one very similar to this but found out it was re-dialed and a few issues so I left it

[@TimelessHistoryChannel]

You can find these two pieces on my website. :-) Link in the description box below the video.

Sssssssst I am hunting these…

[@robynsjp]

Had this one years ago, traded it in for a JLC Reverso. I think a full gold version was donated by a senator to JFK in the 1960 US presidential election. Stanton or something, you can find it on Google.

[@robynsjp]

Stockdale not Stanton

[@TimelessHistoryChannel]

Thank you the comment. This is actually a different reference. It is a larger piece than the one JFK wore.

[@zillsburyy1]

a better tank?
