Cartier London

Tank Cintrée — Cartier London

Undated

Made mainly in the 1960s under Jean-Jacques Cartier and not sold under the Cintrée name. London cases are often larger and more sharply curved, dials drop the railway track and stretch the Roman numerals, and the cabochon is flatter. Cases bear London hallmarks and the [JC] punch; movements are Jaeger-LeCoultre.

Vintage Cintrées have no reference number: “Tank Cintrée” is the model name collectors use, and pieces are identified by case and movement numbers. Made in three sizes set by the movement (7, 8 and 9 lignes) and in very small numbers; Cartier’s whole Tank output in 1932 was six watches.
