Cartier has been at the forefront of intriguing watch and jewelry designs from their earliest days. From their ground breaking “Tank” wristwatch in 1917, to the famed “Crash “from 1967, the brand has earned its revered reputation by creating some of the most important timepieces offered today. They are also known for their masterful watchmaking skill, producing their first monopoussoir chronograph in 1928. Since that time, Cartier re-issued some of their most iconic watches through the Collection Privée Cartier Paris (CPCP) line in 1998, updating and modernizing some of their most cherished timepieces.

The Tank Chronographe Monopoussoir is a wonderful modern re-edition of the original 1935 example. Though larger in size, it remains faithful to the original’s dial design and case proportions. Only 100 examples of this model were ever made in white gold and the present watch is numbered 64. It is powered by the manual caliber 045MC, co-developed by F. P. Journe, Denis Flageollet and Vianney Halter.

Fresh-to-the-market and consigned by its original owner, the oversized Tank Chronographe Monopoussoir has a bold, yet timeless design with contemporary finish. Preserved in original condition, it is accompanied by its original Cartier certificate and presentation box. Cartier timepieces have adorned famous clientele for more than a century, and this wonderful CPCP Tank Chronographe Monopoussoir is a rarely offered, highly desirable collector’s watch of the modern era.
