The "Cartier Must Tank" that arrived today
features a rare black Roman numeral dial, exclusively available in the manual-winding model.
In addition to the black dial, which is unusual for Cartier, it's an excellent piece that comes with a perpetual warranty.
Many Cartier watches from that era had light-colored dials,
and dark-colored dials like black were not common across dress watches in general.
The perception of wristwatches was different from today,
and black dials were considered sporty,
and thus deemed unsuitable for dress watches.
Over time, however, due to their scarcity in the market, they became highly valued,
and now they seem to be even more popular than standard models.
This time, it's a manual-winding SM size model, an arrival after a long time.
It's become rare to see them lately,
and pieces with a perpetual warranty are especially uncommon worldwide.
Of course, for this sale, we have also performed a complete service at Cartier,
and replaced the crown with a new one,
so you can use it immediately and with peace of mind after purchase.
The combination of gold and black tends to give a masculine impression,
but given the small case size of the old model,
it also looks exceptionally good when worn by women.
In an era where many women's watches are mainly quartz models,
mechanical watches like manual-winding ones might seem a bit distant,
but many people appreciate the attachment to something that only moves when they operate it,
and while some operation is required, it's not difficult.
For those getting their first manual-winding watch, there might be some concerns,
but you can rest assured knowing there's an excellent service offering a perpetual mechanical warranty.
Of course, our store will also handle any issues should they arise,
so please take this opportunity to choose a truly "lifetime" item that rarely becomes available!
