ICONIC LINES

The Tank wristwatch is a true design classic in the world of fine watchmaking, debuting in 1919 as one of the earliest creations of Louis de Cartier. Inspired by the aerial silhouettes of combat vehicles, the Tank followed a design trajectory of modifying the circular watch face and integrating it into the line of the bracelet. The result was, and still is, an avant garde icon of clean lines and striking aesthetics paired with the famed Cartier elegance.

From that inspiring original, the Cartier Tank watch design has evolved over time, adopting a variety of guises, all unmistakeably Cartier. This model is based on the initial 1921 design revision, which slightly lengthened the case and became known as the Tank LC, or Tank Louis Cartier.

A STUDIED ELEGANCE

The classic stylings of this model hark back to the original, with the yellow gold case and bold Roman numeral hour markers paired with a dark grey alligator strap – a design as relevant and attractive as the original, over a century ago. The Tank Louis Cartier is the perfect example of a truly timeless design.

This quartz timepiece features a grained silvered dial, the muted tones of which allow the blued-steel sword hands, crown-set sapphire and, of course, the beautiful yellow gold case, to shine. For an added dose of practicality for the perfect dress watch, the timepiece is water resistant to 30 metres.
