HODINKEE: Eric Wind Mentioned in Helping Tony Traina Find His Cartier Tank

Tony Traina, Editor at Hodinkee, wrote about his affinity for Cartier in the article ‘Buying, Selling, & Collecting Here's Why I Traded My Cartier Santos-Dumont For A Tank’. Within the article, Traina mentions how Eric Wind helped him find his Cartier Tank CPCP.

“About a year ago – actually it was at the Miami Beach Antique Show where I'll be this week – I casually picked up a platinum Cartier Tank CPCP (Collection Privée Cartier Paris) from a certain gentleman dealer's booth and slipped the deployant clasp on my wrist. It was also 11:59 a.m., give or take, about time for lunch.

"Oh, just wear it out to lunch, no worries," that gentlemanly gentleman dealer said, even though I'd made no overtures at a purchase. (Note: that's how they get you.) For the next hour or so, I strutted around sunny Miami Beach with a tiny Tank on my wrist. It was hot and my black-alligator-clad wrist was hotter, but it didn't matter. I loved that damn Tank and bought it. And in the year since I've hardly taken it off my wrist.”
