Cartier : La Montre Tank

NEW UPDATED EDITION

A wristwatch with a pure design, combining geometry and perfect proportions, created by Louis Cartier in 1917, the Tank watch is an icon of modern watchmaking. Immediately recognisable and always in tune with the times, it has been reinterpreted for more than a century through multiple variations, faithful to the spirit of the original design: Tank Cintrée, Tank Chinoise, Tank Américaine, Tank Française...

With numerous archive documents and partly unpublished photographs, this book reveals the most significant Tanks, their technical characteristics and the portraits of the famous customers they have seduced over the years. This new edition includes a chapter on the models created since 2017.
