Cartier Must Tank Ladies Watch, 925 Silver Case, Cream Dial, Roman Numerals, Quartz, Brown Leather Strap, Box

A Cartier Must Tank ladies' quartz watch in a gold-coloured sterling silver case, with a cream Roman dial and a brown leather strap, with its red box and guarantee certificate.

The Piece

Cartier was founded in Paris in 1847 by Louis-Francois Cartier, and the Tank was introduced in 1919.

The rectangular case is in sterling silver with a gold-coloured finish, with straight lugs and a blue cabochon crown. The cream dial is signed must de Cartier, with Roman numerals around a railway minute track, blued hands and the word Swiss at six.

The watch is running. Its previous owner notes small scratches on the crystal and rates it as showing general signs of use. The last photograph shows it with a red Cartier box and an international guarantee certificate carrying a retailer's stamp. Five photographs cover the dial, both sides on the strap, the case back with its clasp, and the watch with box and certificate.
