Overview
The Tank à Guichets in a 37.6 x 24.8 mm case
The Cartier Tank à Guichets, reference WGTA0236, in a 950/1000 platinum case, 37.6 x 24.8 mm and 6 mm thick. Manually wound calibre 9755 MC with a jumping hour, on a burgundy alligator leather strap with a platinum ardillon buckle.
This version is in platinum, with burgundy numerals on the discs and a matching burgundy strap. Its apertures sit at 12 and 6 o'clock.
Cartier dates the Tank to 1917, when Louis Cartier created it, and says the first prototype went to General Pershing before the watch reached the market in 1919. The Tank à Guichets reads the time through two apertures, one for the hour and one for the minutes.
The movement is the manually wound Manufacture calibre 9755 MC, which drives a jumping hour. The display uses rotating discs with Arabic numerals and a minute track. It has 17 rubies, a balance at 28,800 vibrations per hour and a power reserve of approximately 42 hours.
