Before cost-cutting measures brought about the widespread use of cheaper quartz movements for many wristwatches, Cartier contracted with luxury watch manufacturers to produce mechanical movements designed to last a lifetime. Using traditional watchmaking practices, these gifted craftsmen poured individual attention into each wristwatch. As a result, mens Cartier wristwatches with mechanical movements are often more sought after by collectors than their quartz counterparts.
Today's offering showcases this all original and striking mens Certified Pre-Owned vermeil Cartier Tank. It has an iconic tank case, burgundy dial, gold epee hands, sapphire topped crown, and mechanical Cartier movement. Originally designed for men by today's standard it could easily be worn by a woman.
It is in beautiful original condition. Our watchmaker has freshly disassembled the movement down to the last screw and cleaned and oiled it.
Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate.
