A special detail here is the link chain bracelet. The rounded case of the iconic watch sits prominently between the two halves of the watch strap. It skilfully picks up on its lines. With a Cartier Tank Francaise you are buying a timeless watch. Distinctive and luxurious at the same time, this watch never succumbed to a short-lived fashion trend. For many decades it has proven to be a consistently stylish piece of jewelry.
Impressive history
The Cartier Tank is inspired by British tracked assault tanks from the First World War. Louis Cartier, a grandson of the company's founder, designed the watch as a thank you for restoring peace in Europe. The Cartier Tank Francaise used simple and clear shapes. They go back to the French “second neoclassicism”. Which is one of the forerunners of Art Deco.
