The classic gold Tank, with a longer, narrower shape and rounded corners.

The Tank Louis Cartier was Louis Cartier's own favourite. It has been worn by Andy Warhol, Jacqueline Kennedy and many others and is still made with the same proportions.

Materials: Gold, sapphire cabochon; hand-wound movement

Manufacture: Made for Cartier in Paris and later in Switzerland.

The sides, called brancards, that run out into the strap attachments.
