CARTIER Tank Basculante LM ref.W1011358 cal. Frédéric Piguet 060 / Manual Wind

An original strap, an original buckle and a new Morellato leather strap are included.

The Tank Basculante is a revival based on a model announced in 1931.

It is a manual-wind watch, which is hard to find now.

This Tank, whose name means to tip or turn over, had a design that was groundbreaking for a wristwatch of its time, released as a watch that could be used in sport without scratching the glass.

The crown is at twelve, with a distinctive sapphire cabochon directly above it.

The dial has a refined guilloché finish.

The movement is calibre 060 by Frédéric Piguet, a fine manual-wind movement also used in the CPCP collection.

Frédéric Piguet was the distinguished manufacture that produced the base calibres behind Patek's celebrated movements.

The beauty of its Côtes de Genève and its commitment to accuracy convey a high level of completeness; it is dependable, and you can use it with confidence for many years.
