Cartier Tank Must Bordeaux - ref. 4323 - full set - 2021

Revival of an icon

Description

A sharp case rounded edges, reasonable dimensions (even if slightly increased compared to the timeless Louis), a blue cabochon to recall Cartier's jewelery roots, delicate sword hands:Cartier hits the nail once again. 

This renewed model features a red-burgundy dial, a true Cartier color. Perfectly lacquered, the dial offers an infinite palette of reflections.

To top it off, the watch has never been worn. A unique opportunity if you missed your chance before it got sold out in 2021. 

How to wear it?

The uniform strap and dial color harmonizes the whole and allows all outfits. Being in steel and a bit larger than usual Tank Louis licenses also more casual outfits. 

Why did Françoise choose it ?

Françoise mainly offers vintage watches, you might be say! This model is obviously a future Cartier collectable: perfect blend of modernity and respect to the House's heritage, first serie of a range reintroduction, exclusive dial that quickly got sold out... The perfect condition of this watch and its rarity justify Françoise's distance from her usual selection!

History

Palace coup at Cartier in 2021! The House announces the re-introduction of the Tank Must, a range that proved its success when released in 1977, then abandoned in the mid-2000s. The essentials have been kepts: colorful dials, attractive prices, and uncompromising quality. Some slight changes were nevertheless made: Cartier got rid of the  "Must de..." on the dials to keep only the elegance of the Cartier signature, as well as updated sizes.

A few exclusive colors to Cartier boutiques were available: burgundy, green, blue... Of course, sold out in a few weeks!
