Tank Louis Cartier
The Tank in its classic form: a rectangle with the strap running through the case sides.
Louis Cartier designed the Tank in 1917. The two vertical sides of the case, called brancards, run past the dial and hold the strap.
The Tank Louis Cartier is the version closest to his own watch, with rounded brancards. This model is rose gold with a silvered dial, Roman numerals and blued steel sword hands.
It has a hand-wound mechanical movement and a crown with a blue cabochon, on a brown alligator strap.
