The Cartier Tank Asymétrique is the fourth model introduced in the Cartier Privé collection, which, since its relaunch, has presented contemporary reinterpretations of iconic designs such as the Crash, Tonneau, and Tank Normale. In 2020, Cartier reintroduced the Asymétrique, a model originally launched in 1936.
This distinctive design marked a bold departure from conventional round and rectangular cases, defined by its diagonal orientation of both the case and dial.
This modern edition was released in platinum, pink gold, and yellow gold, with each variation produced as a limited edition of 100 pieces.
It is unconventional yet understated, and although conceived in the 1930s, the design remains remarkably fresh and timeless. This is the perfect watch for collectors who appreciate nuanced design.
The present piece is offered in very good condition and is accompanied by its presentation box and warranty card.
