Cartier Tank Louis Mechanical ref. 78087 18K Gold
For sale at Debonar Watches: pre-owned Cartier Tank Louis 78087 from the '70s.
With its case in 18k yellow gold, this pre owned Cartier Tank watch for women is built on a leather strap.
A bit of its story:
Cartier introduced the Tank in 1917. The design of the Tank was inspired by the Renault FT-17 tanks. The Tank Louis Cartier was introduced in 1922, becoming immediately the quintessence of all the Cartier Tanks.
The differences in Tank styles have to do with overall case shape, and the way the lugs are shaped. The Américaine is elongated, while the Divan is shorter and elongated horizontally. The Anglaise will have a guard over the crown.
The Louis is also rectangular but the tips of the lugs are rounded, and the crown cabochon is usually more pointed.
At first called “Tank à Bords Arrondis”, it was then changed to the name of its creator, Louis Cartier.
The example sold here has been worn throughout its life, but is still in good condition. Please study the pictures in this listing well: they show the watch in the condition that it is in, with no digital enhancements to make it look better than it is.
