This Cartier Tank Française Small Model reference WE1001R8 is a refined example of one of the Maison’s most iconic creations, crafted entirely in 18K yellow gold. Instantly recognisable for its integrated bracelet and architectural lines, the Tank Française embodies timeless Parisian elegance and understated luxury.
The small-size case, measuring approximately 20 mm x 25 mm, is perfectly proportioned for a discreet and sophisticated wrist presence. Made from solid 18K yellow gold, the case flows seamlessly into the matching gold bracelet, a hallmark of the Tank Française collection. The bracelet retains its elegant structure and refined finish, reflecting Cartier’s exceptional craftsmanship.
The dial features Cartier’s signature silvered opaline finish with black Roman numerals, a classic chemin-de-fer minute track, and blued steel sword-shaped hands. The look is completed by the iconic blue sapphire cabochon crown, an unmistakable Cartier design element.
This timepiece is powered by a high-precision quartz movement, offering reliable performance with effortless daily wear. While discreet, the movement aligns perfectly with the Tank Française SM’s elegant and jewellery-oriented character.
This certified pre-owned luxury watch is offered in very good condition, showing only light signs of careful wear consistent with its age. It is accompanied by its original Cartier box, though no papers are included, and therefore it is not considered a full set.
A timeless investment piece, this Cartier Tank Française in yellow gold is ideal for collectors and enthusiasts seeking a classic pre-owned luxury watch with enduring style and heritage.
