Cartier Tank Américaine Lady Yellow Gold ref. 1710 - 2003 (papers)

More curvy and longer = sexier Description True to the style of its predecessor, this Tank Américaine Lady reference 1710 retains its signature features—gold case, lugs, railway-style minute track, blued hands, and a winding crown adorned with a sapphire cabochon—while also showcasing a few variations that define it. With its elongated lines and curved shape, this watch hugs the wrist perfectly, making it almost imperceptible. A familiar Tank, yet surprisingly unique! The yellow gold lends it a precious air and harmonizes particularly well with the green of its Cartier strap. How to wear it? Elegant, refined, and chic, the American Tank watch is perfect for any occasion, day or night. From an evening gown to jeans, it will look just right. A watch to complement all your outfits! Its green strap makes the watch less "precious" and suits it perfectly. It pairs particularly well with yellow gold. Why did Françoise choose her? How could Françoise not offer such a beautiful model? The Tank Américaine will never go unnoticed because 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. 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, but retained all the characteristics of its predecessor, including its sapphire crystal, a subtle nod to the brand's jewelry heritage. Over the decades, the Tank has undergone several variations. The Tank Américaine was launched in 1989. While retaining the profile of the Tank Cintrée, its design became narrower, longer, more curved, and slightly thicker.
