Cartier Tank Must De Cartier w/"Lapis" Blue Dial
- Unit price
- /per
The Cartier Tank has achieved iconic status in the world of watch design and, with the exception of a few distinctive variations, has maintained a consistent aesthetic throughout its extensive production history. The first commercially available Tank Normale was introduced in 1919, having been inspired by the treads of the French Renault FT-17 tank used in WW1. Throughout the decades, Tank watches have been documented on the wrists of notable figures from Jackie Kennedy to Andy Warhol. Today, Cartier feels more relevant in the worlds of fashion, music and popular culture than ever before.
The Must De Cartier line was brought to market in the 1970s as a more accessible price point. This was done with the use of electroplating cases vs using solid gold as well as by leveraging quartz movements for the most part, however, some pieces were also produced with mechanical movements. These mechanical pieces are becoming more collectible today and remain a fantastic point of value for the brand. This particular example features a seldom seen dial laquer dial with "lapis" blue pattern adding depth and dimension particularly from its scattered "starry night" specks of gold. It remains in fantastic vintage condition with a mint dial and case displaying beautiful patina. If you've been looking for an affordable and uncommon manual "Tank," look no further!
