Cartier Tank Cintrée

Cartier Cintree Small

Launched in 1921, two years after the original Cartier Tank debuted in 1919, the slim and elongated Tank Cintree has remained in the brand’s repertoire intermittently ever since its launch all those years ago. Typically offered as a limited edition offering irrespective of variant, the Cintree is a special watch. Manually wound and featuring a beautiful curved dial, case, and crystal, the Cintree sits perfectly on the wearer as it wraps around the curvature of the wrist. With exploding Roman numerals and Cartier's signature chemin de fer railroad-style minute track, this Cintree remains entirely grounded in Cartier's quintessential design language, as the French watchmaker has endeavored to do since the Cintree was launched over 100 years ago. This example also features French hallmarks on its case which indicate that the case was indeed made in France. Boasting a personal engraving on the bubble back caseback, designed to accommodate its movement, this Cintree is a living piece of history in more ways than just one.
