Equipped with 1904 MC, the first manufacture movement by Cartier, this new watch boasts never-before-seen mechanics. This can be seen through the sapphire background of a massive dial who’s square shape is just an illusion. From there on, it’s a watch that praises the elegance of irreverence, the dandy-ism that made Cartier, in the style of Truman Capote.
Just like a railroad, its lines stretch into interlaces; its discreet curves are the proof. This could not have been without its composition in either steel or pink gold. For the first time, the oscillating mass manifests itself as a small second hand that tirelessly sweeps along the dial’s white or chocolate background either in a diamond or skeleton version depending on the model. This timepiece is already 96 years old.
Just like the panther, the icon of the Cartier brand, the Tank forges a timeless cult of those who synchronize with time, or better yet, of those who beautify it.
