While Meghan does own a watch that previously belonged to Princess Diana, a present from her husband Prince Harry, she also owns another Cartier watch that she purchased for herself. Let's go back to 2015, when Meghan publicly admitted to wearing this high-end item. She admitted, "I totally splurged and bought the two-tone version." But that wasn't the end of it; Meghan, a self-proclaimed Cartier French Tank watch lover, went one step farther.
On the back, she had a bespoke inscription etched - a note from herself to herself. "To M.M. From M.M.," the inscription says, an apparently emotional touch that now has a different meaning given recent disclosures. Meghan described her motivation for this self-gift, saying, "I've always coveted the Cartier French Tank watch." When I heard out Suits had been extended for a third season, which felt like such a big deal at the time, I decided to treat myself to the two-tone version."
In the present day, Meghan's wrist is adorned with the Cartier French Tank watch, which raises questions once more. This time, however, it's not just about her desire for luxury, but also about the source of the finances that enabled this lavish purchase. The price of the watch in issue, as we discovered, goes from $100,000 to $122,300. Hold on to your seats, because here's the kicker: this large sum raises concerns about Meghan's financial openness. Where did this large sum of money come from? Could it possibly be obtained from charitable funds, dare I say?
The Meghan Effect is well-known for increasing sales of products she wears. However, when it comes to a watch that costs six figures, ethical considerations automatically arise. This disclosure comes at an opportune time, as Meghan and Harry portray themselves as advocates for openness and social fairness.
The Cartier French Tank watch is still available on the Cartier website as of our most recent check. Meghan Markle is suddenly the centre of attention, not only for her fashion choices, but also for a potential controversy lurking in the background.
