A vintage Cartier Tank Must de Cartier watch, presented in its original box with accompanying documentation, including a ''GARANTIE INTERNATIONALE WORLDWIDE GUARANTEE'' booklet.
Origin: The ''Must de Cartier'' line was launched in 1976 as a more accessible entry into the Cartier brand, featuring watches made of vermeil (gold-plated sterling silver) rather than solid gold.
Design: These watches retain the iconic rectangular case and classic Art Deco-inspired dial with Roman numerals and blued hands, characteristic of the broader Cartier Tank collection, which was originally conceived in 1917 and inspired by military tanks.
Movement & Materials: Vintage models, like the one likely depicted, typically feature manual-winding mechanical movements, although later and contemporary ''Tank Must'' versions also offer quartz and even solar-powered ''SolarBeat™'' movements. The cases are often vermeil, and straps are commonly leather.
''Les Must de Cartier'': The phrase ''Les Must de
...Cartier'' translates to ''The Must-Haves of Cartier,'' reflecting the brand''s effort to offer desirable luxury items at a broader price point.
