Cartier Tank Design and Specifications
Cartier has been manufacturing watches for over 150 years and hence has a huge amount of experience. The Cartier Santos is probably the most famous wristwatch produced by the company and was also the first. Vintage Cartier Tank watches are often considered to use one of the most attractive and distinctive designs of any wristwatch.
Cartier tank watches use a rectangular design – again due to the style being based on that of a World War 1 tank – and come in a number of different colours. The watch face displays Roman numerals and markings while the hands are shaped like swords. There are a number of different bezel styles although a common version uses 18k gold for the case. Vintage Cartier tank watches are relatively small in size with a case of 17mm in some cases.
As you’d expect from a watch based on a tank, the Cartier tank line of watches is both sturdy and durable. True vintage Cartier Tank watches for sale can be difficult to find although they often come up on auction sites such as eBay. Vintage Cartier tank watch prices depend on the age of the model and the condition of the movement.
Many of the original Cartier Tank watches had a leather strap as well as a deployment buckle. Depending on when the watch was made it may also come with a quartz movement. Cartier Tank watch prices can range up to tens of thousands of dollars for the rarer models.
There are a number of different versions of the Cartier Tank watch including the Tank Franchaise, Tank Solo, Tank Americaine and Tank Louis Cartier. All the Tank watches use the same square design although also include their own unique features.
The Cartier American Tank watch is a modern version of the original watch and is still a popular model today. As with any Cartier watch there are a huge range of options available when it comes to buying Cartier American tank watches. There are also, however, vintage Cartier tank American watches available.
