Tank Française Watch - Small Model

Tank Collection

For Cartier, it all starts with the design. An uncompromising feature. Clean and precise lines. The Tank watch is the epitome of this pursuit of purity. The intelligence of its design places it seamlessly within its time as well as securing its future. Its capacity to evolve is inexhaustible. Tank is also a family, featuring the Tank Américaine, the Tank Française and the Tank Louis Cartier. Three watchmaking icons that Cartier dares to evolve with the times.

Tank Française

Launched in 1996, the Tank Française debuted, at the time, a metal bracelet in perfect harmony with the case. In 2023, it made a triumphant return, radicalised by Cartier yet true to its monobloc metal design. Its bracelet, whose links fit perfectly together, was revamped by the Maison’s designers to create a curve that was as pure as it was ergonomic, designed for all wrists. The crown was inlaid to match the gentle convex profile of the brancards.

Adopting an innovative approach, Cartier has refined this ultra-streamlined aesthetic to create a steel and diamond version, which features a row of brilliant- cut diamonds highlighting the brancards of the watch. They naturally echo the polished finishes and sunray-brushed dial of this Cartier design icon, equipped with a high autonomy quartz movement.
