Cartier Tank Anglaise | 18k Rose Gold | 26mm | Automatic | WJTA0009

An Icon, Reimagined

Cartier’s Tank Anglaise distills the original 1917 vision into a bolder, sculptural expression—refining the Tank’s linear poetry while introducing a crown seamlessly nested within the brancard.

The Curator’s Insight

Cartier’s genius lies in reinterpreting DNA without dilution: the Anglaise repositions the crown and strengthens the architecture, yet preserves the Tank’s innate grace. It is a confident evolution—timeless elegance translated into modern form.

A Testament to Enduring Design

The Tank Anglaise proves the power of a master design to adapt without compromise. It wears like a jewel of architecture—decisive lines, luminous metal, and purposeful restraint—an object of taste that speaks fluently in both tradition and modernity.
