Cartier Tank Américaine Large Auto - ref. 1725

More curvy and longer = sexier  Description True to the style of its predecessor, the Tank Américaine adopts its signature features – gold case, lugs, railway-style minute track, blue hands, and a winding crown adorned with a sapphire cabochon – while introducing a few variations that define it. With its elongated lines and curved shape, it's a watch that perfectly hugs the wrist, making it almost imperceptible. The features of the Tank Américaine are enhanced in this large automatic yellow gold version which displays the date at 6 o'clock. How to wear it? Elegant, refined, and chic, the Tank Américaine is perfect for any occasion, day or night. From an evening gown to jeans and a blouse, it will look stunning. Its black strap makes it even more versatile. Although its size might suggest a more masculine style, it would be perfectly appropriate on a woman's wrist, as traditional watchmaking codes become increasingly blurred. Why did Françoise choose her? How could Françoise not offer such a beautiful model? The Tank Américaine will never go unnoticed, as it has a real presence on the wrist. Not because of its imposing size, but rather because of its understated elegance, which makes it a truly great watch, a watch with undeniable style. A timeless model. Already offering Tank watches with quartz and manual-winding movements, Françoise was delighted to be able to acquire an automatic version. History After launching the Tank Normale in 1917, the House of the Panther introduced a new model four years later: the Tank Cintrée. It boasted a more dynamic design, a curved case, and a shape that hugged the wrist. However, it retained all the characteristics of its predecessor, including its sapphire crystal, a subtle nod to its jewelry heritage. Over the decades, the Tank has undergone numerous variations. The Tank Américaine was born in 1989. While retaining the profile of the Tank Cintrée, its design became narrower, longer, more curved, and slightly thicker.
