About This Watch

New Old Stock. Comes with orig. boxes & undated paper. Watch has never been worn & kept in a safe. This is a rare & very fine Cartier Tank Basculante in solid 18KYG. It was an important design in the rich Cartier watch history & the earlier limited edition are highly sought after that sold for over S$30K at one point. This is an old stock and never worn example from our private collection and is now sale. It belongs to the important Privèe Collezione that was only sold in Cartier boutiques with no discount except a mere 15% for VIPs. It is also fitted with a very desirable solid gold deployant buckle worth a few thousand dollars & is very convenient for the owner. This gold edition has a glass back to show it's tiny hand wound & decorated movement while the dial is made of solid gold, hand guilloché decorated then silvered before printing of the timeless Cartier Roman numerals. The secret signature is @ 7 on the dial. Production of such watches are always kept to a minimum ensuring it's exclusivity.

Highly collectible timepiece for the gentleman or ladies who prefer a larger watch.
