Description

This is the Cartier Tank Americaine 1735. The history of the Cartier Tank is one that barely needs any introduction, given that it has been covered excessively. The origins of the Tank began in 1917, inspired by war machines of the same name. Given the success of the original Tank, Cartier began to vary the types of Tank to leverage on the success of the model. The iconic original curved Tank, the Cintree, was introduced in 1921. This was something refreshing and unexpected, for a curved watch was not something that was anticipated to be well received in the more conservative times of the past. In 1989, the Tank Americaine was introduced as another variation. As the 90s ushered in the era of larger timepieces, the bigger Tank Americaine was befitting of the trends at that time. Reminiscent of a Cintree, the Americaine had a curved case with a much flatter caseback. It wears unlike the Cintree given that the Cintree shapes the wrist and the Americaine sits on it. Notably, this one is from the beloved Cartier Privee Collection Paris (CPCP) collection, with a guilloche dial and PARIS stamped under Cartier and has a case size of 26 x 45mm.

Condition

This Cartier Tank Americaine 1735 CPCP is in good pre-owned condition. There are several hairlines on the yellow gold case, notably on the bezel. The watch appears to be unpolished and the caseback is in very good condition. It also comes with the original Cartier strap and yellow gold deployant buckle.
