Description
The Tank is perhaps one of the most iconic, elegant and beloved watch designs in the world. Through its century of existence, it has experienced a plethora of variations, including the present "Mini" version modelled after the Tank Louis. This appealing and early hand-wound example features the coveted "Paris" dial and matching French hallmarks.
Condition Report
Very GoodThe dial with very small imperfections and specks, only noticeable under loupe, otherwise in uncracked and clean condition. The case is in very good overall condition with signs of wear, but still retains crisp engravings and hallmarks except 1 which is slightly rubbed. The movement is running at the time of cataloging, however, it was not tested for the accuracy of time or duration of the power reserve and may need service at the buyer's discretion. Please note that Sotheby's does not guarantee the future working of the movement.
