(1) Seldom-seen all-original lacquered “wood grain” Swiss-only dial, not a service replacement! (2) Most Tank Vermeils are quartz, but this one’s manual. (3) The entire watch is in original untouched wabi-sabi condition with all original parts including the crystal… truly uncommon out there. It’s thought that Cartier made accessible versions of the Tank Louis Cartier, the most iconic and classic dress watch ever, because everyone “Must” own a Tank (hence “Must de Cartier”). More affordable, but still in luxurious 925 silver with thick 20 micron gold plating. 70s-90s Tanks are all the rage these days, and with this one you can get on board but still stand out!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eCONDITION:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e8\/10.

Deep,\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003esharp engravings\/hallmarks on the caseback. Crystal is original, not aftermarket replacement, and has some fine marks but nothing conspicuous. Lacquered dial is both unique and beautifully original, with spidering common for the age, but intact without loss of integrity. Spidering is often appreciated as natural lacquer patina, and indicates unreplaced originality. Original Cartier buckle has minimal hairlines. Aftermarket strap is new.
