The present Tank Louis ‘Ultra-Thin’ measures only 4.5 mm. thick, giving the watch a breathtakingly chic persona.
The Cartier Tank needs almost no introduction; it is undoubtedly one of the most recognizable and desirable wristwatches in the world. Like all great designs, its simplicity, beauty, and elegance have transcended passing fashions over the decades.

Naturally, several variations of the classic Tank have been made since its introduction in 1918.
