With so many watches looking the same, it’s nice to have a unique style of watch in your jewelry box. A rectangle faced watch is one of those special styles that stand out from the typical round designs that are so common.
Rectangular women’s watches typically have a case with a narrow diameter, making it ideal for women’s smaller wrists. The watch face itself is usually minimalist in style, although the watch itself is elegant and dressy.
The original rectangle faced watches were designed by Cartier and called a tank, so named because it was inspired by Renault tanks in the First World War.
Tank watches for women are highly coveted and have been worn by the likes of Jackie Kennedy and Princess Diana. But you can find styles similar to a woman’s tank watch that are made by other watchmakers.
