“The Tank Américaine blends elegance, exceptional craftsmanship and distinctive design, perfectly capturing the enduring spirit of Cartier.”

Inspired by the bold and distinctive designs that established Cartier’s enduring Tank line, the Tank Américaine was introduced in 1989 as a more elongated and contemporary interpretation of the iconic Tank. This model, the W26035K2, features a beautifully proportioned case crafted entirely from 18k yellow gold, with gently curved sides that follow the wrist and give the watch its unmistakable presence. The striking dial retains the hallmarks of Cartier, with bold black Roman numerals offset by blued sword hands, set against an ivory white background, and this model also features a date aperture at 6 o’clock. The sleek, stylish case retains the brand’s signature blue sapphire cabochon crown, and is complemented by the watch’s supple, smooth 18k yellow gold bracelet, creating a beautifully cohesive and luxurious aesthetic that is guaranteed to turn heads but stay classy at the same time. The watch is powered by the automatic Cartier cal.077 movement, with a power reserve of 42 hours. An elegant interpretation of one of Cartier’s most celebrated Tank models.
