Instrumental in saving Cartier 50 years ago when the economic boom of post-WWII France faded, and with it, demand for luxury. Cartier’s solution? Make accessible versions of the (otherwise full-gold) iconic Tank LC but in gold-plated sterling silver, and fitting them with Swiss quartz calibres. This took the market by storm and kept Cartier’s watch business afloat, unlike much of the European industry. This is a very uncommon and sought-after “tuxedo dial” in the LM size, with a manual-winding movement to boot. Super versatile and classy no matter what you wear with it. With the original Cartier strap and buckle (plus aftermarket ones), and a full set with box and papers. For many, THE vintage Tank Must LM to have, and they’d be right!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eCONDITION:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e9\/10, with scant signs of use. Deep, crisp engravings\/hallmarks. Clean crystal\/cabochon\/hands. Lacquered dial has the subtlest spidering; a lot less than common for this vintage. Spidering is appreciated as characterful patina, indicating original vs replaced dials. Included Cartier buckle has minor hairlines, and original Cartier strap is worn. New aftermarket strap and buckle included. Movement in excellent health with to-spec power reserve, strong amplitude, low beat error.
