Cartier Tank Mini Allongée - White Gold - c. 1995
Large watch and mini size
Description
A gold case, protruding side lugs, a railway-style minute track, blued hands, and a winding crown adorned with a pointed sapphire cabochon: all the hallmarks of the Cartier Tank Louis are present. Instantly recognizable by its iconic design, this watch has lost none of its charm, particularly with its dimensions that make it a true jewel. It is elegant, practical, and very comfortable on the wrist. It will appeal to those who appreciate small, discreet, and dressy watches, especially with its 18-karat white gold case paired with a black alligator leather Cartier strap. Thanks to its white dial, it can be paired with the strap color of your choice, according to your taste and the season.
Why did Françoise choose her?
Françoise loves all types of Tank watches, whether classic, gem-set, in yellow gold, white gold, or even the mini version like this one. It's a watch we highly recommend, especially in white gold, a less common material on the wrist. You'd almost forget you were wearing it if it weren't so essential, both historically and stylistically. A watch that will never lose its value. It's, par excellence, the kind of watch you take pleasure in passing down. A piece that combines technical expertise and aesthetics: functionality, elegance, and prowess are all present. The Tank "was brilliantly created to remain eternally contemporary." That's why we have complete confidence in it.
This Cartier Tank Louis is truly perfect for any occasion. A watch that's a pleasure to wear and admire. It's particularly well-suited to everyday life, perfect for work or an evening out, as it can be both casual and elegant.
History
The Tank watch, also known as the Normale, appeared in 1917 in honor of the heroes of the First World War, its design inspired by early tanks. Five years later, the Tank Louis Cartier was created, a model very similar to the first but with a more elongated dial and thinner, more rounded lugs. Several generations have followed, maintaining the same distinctive features while adapting to new watchmaking technologies such as quartz. Numerous celebrities have adopted it, including Jackie Kennedy, Lady Diana, Alain Delon, Catherine Deneuve, Yves Saint Laurent, Gary Cooper, Johnny Hallyday, and Sophia Coppola, to name just a few.
