Though Cartier wristwatches have always been coveted by collectors “in-the-know”, they have recently skyrocketed in popularity and acclaim. After all, the Tank is an icon of watch design over a century in the making. Introduced in 2012, the Tank Anglaise was a bolder refresh to the model which sat alongside the already established Americaine and Francaise. With a curvilinear case and distinct enclosed crown, the ergonomic design softened the aesthetics of the watch and allowed the Anglaise to carve its own segment within the model line.
Presented in two-tone pink gold and stainless steel with matching bracelet, this watch wears elegantly on the wrist and allows collectors the opportunity to own an unconventional yet nonetheless iconic iteration of a true classic.
