Cartier Tank de Cartier | Steel | Small Model | Quartz | WSTA0042

A Design Icon Since 1917

Conceived by Louis Cartier at the dawn of modernity, the Tank distilled the top‑down silhouette of a Renault armored vehicle into a new, radical geometry for the wrist. Its genius lies in the seamless flow of case and strap—the architectural “brancards” framing the dial—creating a silhouette as pure as a single, confident line.
