Cartier Tank solid 18ct gold watch

Description

This is a beautiful classic Cartier Tank vintage watch in near mint condition, with no significant wear - the dial is perfect but hasn't photographed well, so much nicer in reality. The watch is unisex size and is of course authentic. It features a solid 18ct gold case, a mint original dial and a high grade Cartier quartz movement. I have added a high quality Hirsch leather strap, with the original gold-plated Cartier buckle attached and the watch comes complete with its original Cartier box. World famous Cartier of Paris has always been one of history's most admired and sought after brands. They produce two watch ranges, a cheaper mass market range such as 'Les Must de Cartier' and then a more exclusive top end range. This stunning unisex watch is very much the latter, not to be confused with the cheap gold plated models.

My asking price is well below the true value of the watch, given the continual rise in value of Cartier watches of this quality. I will include a six month written guarantee on the movement, which is long enough for you to assess the working order. I will also provide an insurance valuation, which will be in excess of my asking price. Also, I offer a full refund if you are not entirely happy, as long as the watch is returned within seven days if UK customer, fourteen days if overseas, in the same condition. Please contact me if you would like to view the watch in central London.

The solid 18ct gold case is in excellent gleaming condition, with no significant wear. The case measures 24mm wide, excluding the original sapphire cabachon winding crown x 30mm long, including the solid gold fixed bar lugs. The outside back of the case is signed ‘Cartier’ ‘Paris’, ‘Tank Quartz’, ‘Swiss Made’ with the case reference no ‘810680276’ and Swiss hallmarks for solid 18ct gold. The inside back is signed 'Swiss' and also carries the appropriate Swiss hallmarks for solid 18ct gold.

The beautiful original, unrestored Cartier dial is in flawless condition and is signed ‘Cartier’ and ‘Paris’. The original blued steel hands are in excellent, unbent condition and the lens is very clear.

The high grade quartz movement is signed Cartier and is in perfect working order.

I have added a new, high quality Hirsch leather strap, attached to which is the original gold-plated Cartier buckle. The watch comes complete with its original Cartier box, which is in very good condition with minor wear.

A superb, valuable watch from one of history's most famous names; full of charm and elegance. Will provide an excellent financial investment as well as a possession to enjoy.
