Next to diamonds, a Cartier watch is a woman's best friend. The Cartier Tank Louis is a watch that is beloved by women for decades. This elegant wristwatch has an 18k yellow-gold case and a typical white Cartier dial. It has beautiful blued-steel hands and a pointed sapphire in the crown. The watch comes on a vintage, brown leather strap from the '70s. It has a manual-wound movement. The white dial and black-painted Roman numerals have 'Paris' below the 6-hour position, which indicates that the watch was bought from the Cartier boutique in Paris.
Introduction
Cartier Tank It was a tribute to the Allied Troops and their tanks. Hence, the name and the form. The model started in 1917 but made public in 1919 once the peace had returned. Tank watches are easily recognizable because of their crossbars, sidepieces and their rectangular or square form. It belongs to the most important watches in history and it is one of the pillars of Cartier. No wonder that, for example Andy Warhol, Jackie Kennedy, Yves Saint Laurent, Frank Sinatra and Calvin Klein, all wore one.
