Cartier Tank Solo 'Small' 2743 + Box & Papers (2014)

At 10 over 10, we have a fondness for vintage watches, but sometimes we like to make an exception for some newer models that also fit perfectly in our collection! The iconic Cartier Tank Solo watch we have here is made of 18K yellow gold and was produced from 2004 to around 2019. After that, the model was succeeded by the Cartier Tank Must.

The 18K yellow gold case of this Tank Solo Small is in excellent condition and is like new! The dimensions of the case are 31 mm x 24 mm, perfect for both ladies and the more classic gentlemen among us. The watch features the characteristic silver dial, equipped with Roman numerals and dark blue, sword-shaped hands. And of course, the distinctive blue cabochon on the crown is a must. A beautiful piece that carries all the traits of a Cartier Tank, if you ask us!

This Cartier Tank Solo Small 2743 from 2014 comes on a black leather Cartier strap, equipped with an 18K yellow gold Cartier buckle. This also makes the watch a stunning piece of jewelry. Additionally, this classic Cartier Tank Solo watch comes with its original Cartier box, booklet, papers and 1 year of mechanical warrant.

It is characteristic that the interior and cushion of Cartier boxes from this period usually wear out quickly. In this example, the cushion and the inside of the box show some slight signs of ageing.

Cartier

The Cartier Tank watch is one of the most iconic watches in the history of haute horlogerie. The tank was first introduced in 1917 and quickly became a timeless symbol of style and elegance. To this day, the Cartier Tank remains one of the most popular and successful models of Cartier. 

The story behind the Cartier Tank watch begins with Louis Cartier, the founder of Cartier. He was inspired by the tanks used during World War I. The sleek lines and shapes of the tanks piqued his interest, and he decided to translate this into a watch design. In 1917, the first Cartier Tank watch was introduced. The model was distinguished by its rectangular case with rounded corners, reminiscent of the shape of a tank. The tank featured a simple dial with Roman numerals and blue steel hands. It was a radical design for its time, as most watches then had round cases. The Cartier Tank watch quickly became popular among high society and celebrities, including style icons like Jacqueline Kennedy, Andy Warhol, and Princess Diana. The watch was regarded as a symbol of refinement and class.
