Cartier Tanks Must Large 

Of course, we are naturally very charmed by vintage watches, but sometimes we like to make an exception for models that also fit within our collection. The iconic Cartier Tank Must watch we have here dates from the year 2022. The all-steel case of the watch is in excellent condition, with dimensions of 33.7 mm x 25.5 mm and a thickness of 6.6 mm. The case back shows some light signs of use, but is definitely still in good shape! The watch features the familiar silver dial, with Roman hour markers and dark blue sword-shaped hands. And of course, let's not forget the famous blue cabochon crown. Originally, this reference comes with a steel Cartier bracelet. This is not included with the watch, but the previous owner clearly had a good taste, and chose to fit the watch with an original leather Cartier strap which has been worn barely. This amazing, iconic Cartier Tank Must Large comes as a complete set, including outer box, case, booklets and the Cartier card.

The Cartier Tank

The Cartier Tank watch is one of the most iconic timepieces in the history of haute horlogerie. The Tank was first introduced in 1917 and quickly became a timeless symbol of style and elegance.

The story behind the Cartier Tank watch begins with Louis Cartier, the founder of Cartier. He was inspired by the tanks used during World War I. The sleek lines and shapes of the tanks piqued his interest, and he decided to translate them into a watch design.

In 1917, the first Cartier Tank watch was introduced. The model distinguished itself with its rectangular case with rounded corners, reminiscent of the shape of a tank. The Tank featured a simple dial with Roman numerals and blue steel hands. It was a radical design for its time, as most watches of that era had round cases.

The Cartier Tank watch quickly gained popularity among the high society and celebrities, including style icons like Jacqueline Kennedy, Andy Warhol, and Princess Diana. The watch was considered a symbol of refinement and class.
