About This Watch

Classic. No box or papers.

This Tank Must de Cartier Vermeil was first introduced in 1977 and has since been an integral part of Cartier's collection, offering an affordable entry level watch to attract new Cartier clients. The case is made of solid 925 Silver and plated to 20 microns gold hence it is named Vermeil (pronounced as Ver-mail) otherwise known as silver gilt.

This is a ladies version which makes it one of the smallest Tank to feature a hand winding mechanical movement and is a collector's item today as they were fitted with quartz movements in the late 1990s onwards.

This specimen has been restored with a fresh restored dial with secret signature at VII and complete with the blue spinel cabochon crown. The case has been re-plated and overall, the watch looks good as new while the iconic black Roman numbers and hands are easy to read from far.

It is simple to maintain and will accompany you for decades bearing in mind that these are not water-resistant watches. This remains an affordable entry to the fascinating world of Cartier luxury and the Tank is enjoying a rennaisance recently with the renewed interest among international dealers and collectors. A current Tank Santos Dumont in Platinum is selling for S$60K.

Others are selling the same for US$1800 and above.
