Cartier Tank Louis Cartier WGTA0342 Watch

When Louis Cartier created the Tank watch in 1917, a legend was born. The first prototype was presented as a gift to General Pershing before the watch was brought to market in 1919. The lugs blend seamlessly into the stark edges of flat vertical brancards, lending the watch its unique aesthetic. Its clean, crisp lines have proved hugely popular with a free-spirited, elegant clientèle. The now iconic Tank watch has inspired countless variations yet managed to preserve its distinctive identity.
