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 Swiss made Cartier quartz movement that never needs to be wound.

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 presents as gorgeous condition - the watch itself presents like new down to the screw heads. A 9.8 or 9.9 out of 10. The band and buckle have been previously worn but are serviceable.

Note that the case and dial came out with a slightly more yellow tone in the photos than they appear in person.

A Master Watchmaker has performed any needed servicing. For the finishing touch we have meticulously detailed it 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.
