2019 Cartier Tank Cintrée 46mm 18k Gold Watch

SOLD - This treasure now resides in a cherished client's jewelry collection.

The Cartier Tank wristwatch was first launched in 1921. The Tank Cintrée (from the French for “curved”) took the idea of the originally square-shaped Tank and adopted it for the curvature of the wrist. This pre-owned masterpiece rendered in 18k yellow gold dates to 2019 is sold-out and much sought-after. Ours retains the original box and certificate and is in nearly unworn condition.
Imagine the scene during the Roaring Twenties: The pocket watch is only just beginning to fall out of favor in the aftermath of the War — indeed, many men will continue wearing them until the 1940s. The idea of a dedicated, curved timepiece specially designed for someone to wear on his wrist is completely radical, and totally ahead of its time. The versatile 46mm size is suitable for a lady or a gentleman.
