Designed personally by Louis Cartier in 1917 and patterned after an army tank, Cartier's iconic Tank watch symbolized speed and achievement.
Today's offering showcases this beautiful Certified Pre-Owned mens Cartier Tank watch. It has an iconic tank case, classic Roman dial, blued epee hands, sapphire topped crown, and mechanical Cartier movement.
Before cost-cutting measures brought about the widespread use of cheaper quartz movements for many wristwatches, Cartier contracted with 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.
Originally designed for men by today's standard it could also be worn by a woman.
It is fully Cartier down to the original band and buckle. It has just finished a true expertly done overhaul and presents in gorgeous condition. On the wrist it presents like new. The movement has just fully serviced by a Master Watchmaker.
It comes equipped with its Cartier strap and Cartier buckle making it ready for immediate enjoyment.
Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. international warranty on the movement and its function and a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity.
