00:00 Cartier Tank Introduction

To many around the world, Cartier is a brand synonymous with fine jewelry including statement pieces, engagement rings, and even feline-inspired adornments. Cartier is also home to some iconic wristwatches.

00:49 Cartier's Early History

Cartier can trace its root back to 1847 when watchmaker Louis-Francois Cartier purchased the small Parisian watch and jewelry store at which he had been an apprentice.

Cartier’s first men’s wristwatch was actually born five years prior, In 1904, after Brazilian aviator, Alberto Santos-Dumont complained to his friend Louis Cartier about the impracticality of pocket watches when flying.

06:30 Cartier Tank Today

There are several sub-collections that all bear the tank name. At the time of filming, those available are: → Must
→ Americaine
→ Asymetrique
→ Chinoise
→ Francaise
→ Louis
→ And MC (Manufacture Cartier)

All of these sub-collections have variations in styling and function. So whether you like the unique styling of the Asymetrique or the modern lines of the Americaine, there's bound to be a Tank for everyone’s tastes.

07:20 Tank Must

A design that’s very faithful to the original. It’s finished in a stainless steel case with a silvered dial
and features a set of blued sword-shaped hour and minute hands with no seconds hand. The crown showcases a beaded design, into which is set a synthetic cabochon-shaped spinel. It comes on a black-grained calfskin strap that has a steel buckle in the iconic Cartier design although, you can also purchase a Must with a steel bracelet, too.

08:45 Tank Louis

You’ll see more variety within the range. The sizes are fairly similar to the Must collection, with three different sizes to choose from. One of the big differences is that practically all of the Louis collection features a hand-wound mechanical movement. All except the small and large entry models, which feature quartz movements.

11:18 Is It Worth It?

Buying the Cartier Louis new is not worth it in our estimation. With the vintage and second-hand market being an absolute treasure trove of Cartier Tanks, we’d much rather spend some time searching around for a vintage Louis at a better price.

For the timeless styling, ability to wear it with almost anything, and overall affordability, I can happily say that the Must Tank is worth it!
