In 2021, Cartier celebrated the 100th anniversary of the Tank Cintrée with a gold limited edition. In 2023, the Maison continued to honor the model’s legacy with a new platinum edition. While not a direct reissue, this release drew inspiration from its heritage, blending timeless design with modern refinement. The Tank Cintrée, known for its large, curved case, remains the boldest and most elegant of the Tank models, perfectly suited for contemporary tastes.

The platinum case measures 46mm by 23mm and is now slightly thinner at just 6mm. True to vintage Cintrée examples, the long polished brancards contrast with brushed horizontal sides, while a ruby cabochon crown adds a luxurious touch. Powered by the ultra-thin Cartier caliber 9780 MC, based on the Jaeger-LeCoultre 849, the movement is just 1.85mm thick, perfectly complementing the slim case.

Part of Cartier’s "Les Rééditions" program, which revives collector-favorite models in limited editions, this platinum Cintrée features an off-white eggshell dial with Roman numerals and a rail track. A charming vintage detail is the 7 o’clock numeral’s serif, which hooks around the track, a nod to original Cintrée models. Breguet-style hands complete the look.

The Tank Cintrée has always been the most coveted of the Tank family due to its rarity and refined shape, and platinum editions are especially prized. The present example, having left the boutique in September 2024, is in like-new condition and offers a rare opportunity to own this now sold-out masterpiece.
