Cartier Tank Française

Tank Française – the Tank with a link bracelet

The Tank Française was launched in 1996 and combines the shape of the Tank with an integrated link bracelet. Case and bracelet merge seamlessly, so the watch is worn almost like a bangle. At HORANDO you will find the Tank Française in steel in the small and medium models, new and unworn with the full manufacturer's warranty.

Design between watch and jewellery

Typical of the Tank Française are the gently curved brancards, which flow directly into the link bracelet, and the dial with Roman numerals and chemin de fer. The crown is set with a spinel cabochon, the hands are made of blued steel and a sapphire crystal protects the dial. Especially in steel, the Tank Française is an everyday watch that suits a blouse just as well as a knitted jumper.

Which size suits you

The small model measures 21.2 by 25.7 mm and is the delicate ladies' watch of the line. The medium model, at 27 by 32 mm, has a stronger presence on the wrist and is also worn by men with slender wrists. Both models are powered by a quartz movement and are water-resistant to 30 metres.

The Tank Française compared

If you prefer to wear the Tank on a leather strap, the Tank Must is the entry point and the Tank Louis Cartier is the gold version. Another jewellery watch with a supple link bracelet is the Panthère de Cartier. You will find all lines of the Tank on our page for the Cartier Tank, and our guide The most beautiful watches for women offers an overview of ladies' watches.
