Cartier Tank Française 1840

Cartier Tank Francaise 1840 Large Size Automatic 18k YG

Offered as part of Cartier’s family of Tank models, the Tank Francaise debuted in 1996 as a modern take on the timeless classic, with its angular design and integrated bracelet. Offered here we have the Tank Francaise ref. 1840 in 18kt yellow gold which epitomizes elegance and sophistication, as per Cartier’s modus operandi. Boasting a touch of opulence through its large 32mm x 28mm 18kt yellow gold case, the Francaise’ polished finish enhances the luster of the precious metal, creating a stunning contrast against the guilloche engraved silver dial. Sporting black Roman numerals and blued steel hands alongside a minute track, the Francaise’s dial further accentuates its classic and distinctly Cartier allure.
