Cartier - 1980s Cartier Must de Cartier Tank 'Vermeil' Black Dial
1980s Cartier Must de Cartier Tank 'Vermeil' Black Dial
The Must de Cartier line was released as a diffusion, or a more attainable and affordable version of the classic Tank. They're often featured in Vermeil or "silver gilt” cases, which are comprised of gold-plated sterling silver. That, combined with the inky black, marker-less dial, makes this model both striking and classy, and a great way to dip your toes into the world of the Tank.
