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 striking Certified Pre-Owned mens vermeil Cartier Tank. It has an iconic tank case, classic burgundy dial, gold epee hands, sapphire topped crown, and quartz Cartier movement.

Originally designed for men by today's standard it could also be worn by a woman.

It presents in very pleasing original condition. Its case is in near mint original condition with no gold wear through. Its dial is near mint with slight fading. And its crystal is mint.

For the finishing touch we have installed a new battery and a brand new Teju lizard strap making it ready for immediate enjoyment.

Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. warranty on the movement and its function and a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity.
