Louis Cartier created the Tank watch in 1917. More than 90 years later, the Tank lives on. The iconic design and distinctive identity is preserved in all of its individual variations. This September, a new member to the Tank family is born. Discover the new Tank MC.
The elegant design takes on a bold, masculine edge with cutting-edge technology and character. The model is presented in a high end skeleton version costing around £36,700 and at the same time, as a more affordable gold or steel version for £4,590. The steel versions come with a cream or black dial while the pink gold versions offer a cream or chocolate dial but be prepared for the diamond-set versions to come aboard for an eye-watering price worn only by the fashion elite.
The aesthetics and build quality is magnificent. It has all the masculine aspects a watch can have and still has the elegance and refinement of a traditional Cartier Tank. It also shows that a men’s watch does not need to be huge or brash, since the new MC is not too small to appear feminine, but not too big to appear ridiculous. The revolutionary rectangular dial synonymous with Cartier has been retained proving the timeless style. The small seconds at six o’clock’ is a neat ‘petite complication’ that gives the dial that masculine touch and unfussy charm, while the clean crisp lines shows elegance and quality. The handy date aperture at three o’clock is a good looking addition, practical and seamlessly incorporated into the design, it looks good and it does the job.
The automatic movement, designed by Cartier manufacture, is visible through the transparent sapphire crystal case back so you can witness the model’s power and strength. Meanwhile, water-resistance of all Tank MC models is around 30 metres.
With gold, diamonds and leather accessorised to give this watch the right of opulence, you know you’re not just parting way with your cash for a nice watch; you’re making a good investment in a time-less piece.
With its sturdy construction and its techno look, this new Tank MC is a typical men’s only watch, that can adapt to any occasion, from the sports centre to the business desk.
Cartier has surpassed itself with the introduction of this magnificent new Tank MC, that from a DNA point of view, is the perfect step forward, in the natural evolution of La Maison’s incomparable collection of Tank watches.
