I´ve got this tank watch with dial signed "Cartier".
The case is part steel, and part gold ?
It is engraved outside "Cartier. 18 K GOLD ELECTROPLATED. SWISS".
The movement reads "17 jewells" and number 1091, but there is no sign "Cartier" on it.
Can this be a genuine CARTIER, being the movement unsigned, or not ?
If genuine, what could it be worth ?
Thanks.

The watch doesn't look right to me. The movement should be signed Cartier and the ones I have seen are round. The case is also typically gold plate over Sterling silver.

I dont think this is good one, like Zaf wrote, i doesnt look right. Nevertheless, a real Cartier dial must have an almost microscopic "Cartier" written on the V at 7 O'clock.
