Worn by Jennifer Aniston, Anna Wintour, and the late Princess Diana, the company's watches have long been favorites of royalty, Hollywood celebrities, and any woman desiring to wear a timepiece of distinction.
No watches better embody the best attributes of a Cartier than the renowned Tank models. Designed personally by Louis Cartier in 1917 and patterned after an army tank, it symbolized speed and achievement, and today, these watches are easily recognized across as room as a Cartier.
Before cost-cutting measures brought about the widespread use of cheaper quartz movements for many wristwatches, Cartier contracted with luxury watch manufacturers to produce mechanical movements designed to last a lifetime. Using traditional watchmaking practices, these gifted craftsmen poured individual attention into each wristwatch. As a result, mens Cartier wristwatches with mechanical movements are often more sought after by collectors than their quartz counterparts.
Today's offering showcases a classic ladies Cartier tank watch. It features an iconic tank case that is 18K gold plated over sterling silver, Cartier signed dial with a brown marbleized finish, and signed Cartier movement.
The case is in pleasing condition and the dial is original. Our watchmaker has freshly cleaned and oiled the movement. We have also installed a new Teju lizard strap with the watch's original Cartier buckle to make it ready for immediate enjoyment.
Included with the purchase is a one-year warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate.
