Cartier - Cartier Tank Louis ref. 78086

Lovely Tank Louis ref. 78086 — a very nice example and a personal favorite. The Tank Louis can be found in different iterations, sizes, and movements, yet the design language remains the same: purely classical and, in my opinion, one of the most beautiful designs ever. Now available!

Case & Bracelet:
The solid gold case is in excellent condition. It appears to have been polished in the past, yet retains a sharp profile. It is currently fitted with a generic black leather strap and an original Cartier 18K buckle.

Dial & Hands:
The white Roman dial is in good condition. Cracking is visible from side angles — the spidering is noticeable under magnification and is mostly present around 9 o’clock. The blued steel hands are in good condition; the tip of the minute hand shows minor rust.

Movement:
The watch is keeping good time. The service history is unknown. A timegrapher reading has been included as a courtesy.


Dimensions: 23x30mm

Box, Papers, etc.: Box
