Cartier Tank Mini Yellow Gold - 7.500€

When we talk about shaped watches, we quickly think of Cartier, which is probably the reference in this field. Louis Cartier has always embraced the idea of ​​creating watches with a unique, original design that is always recognizable among the others.

The Cartier Tank watch was created in 1917 by Louis Cartier, inspired by the shape of military tanks used during World War I. Its clean, rectangular design was revolutionary and quickly became a symbol of elegance and modernity. Officially released in 1919, the Tank has since evolved through models like the Tank Louis Cartier, Tank Américaine, Tank Cintrée, and Tank Française among many others. Worn by icons such as Jackie Kennedy and Princess Diana, it remains a timeless classic. Over 100 years later, the Cartier Tank continues to blend heritage, style, and innovation.

This model is a variation known as the "Mini": a watch format in which Cartier is arguably the true specialist, regularly offering miniature versions of its iconic designs. Here, we find the legendary and instantly recognizable Tank aesthetic, housed in a 15 x 24 mm case crafted entirely in yellow gold, including the original 18k gold folding clasp. The beautiful beaded crown, set with a cabochon, appears especially prominent on the small case, adding a distinctive touch that is unmistakably Cartier.
