- Launched in 1917, the Cartier Tank is not only the first key model that influenced the Maison’s heritage in the world of watch making, but is also the first serially produced wristwatch that made history.

- At the turn of the 21st century, the demand for quaint, petite watches depleted which made way for larger watches with a grander wrist presence. Produced in an array of precious metals and stainless steel, the Tank Americaine ref. 1736-1 was introduced in the early 2000s, boasting a big-for-Cartier case that measures 45mm long and 26.5mm wide. Much coveted by both male and female collectors, the present model is the ideal rectangular-shaped dress watch designed to elevate one’s outfit for any occasion. Featuring a white canvas with an attractive patina, the rectangular dial is adorned with elegant Roman numerals in black. This timeless timepiece is encased in white gold and completed with a signature cabochon crown in blue sapphire and a rich emerald crocodile strap.

- Offered in excellent overall condition with its full set of original accessories, the present ref. 1736-1 is a sophisticated specimen, presented in the Cartier Tank Americaine’s largest size.
