Cartier Tank Américaine Platinum Art Deco W&W 2024

Key Points from the Discussion

• The new platinum Tank Américaine is considered fantastic, but its price and availability details were not immediately clear on Cartier's website post-Watches & Wonders.
• While the dial is loved, some feel the case lacks the elegance of other Cartier Privée pieces like the Cintree, noting the flanks appear too broad or bulbous.
• The flanks on this new Tank Américaine are consistent with earlier steel and rose gold versions of the model.
• The distinction between the Tank Cintree and Tank Américaine models appears to be blurring in recent releases.
• The hands on the new Tank Américaine resemble those found on a Reverso, suggesting Breguet-style hands might have been a more fitting choice for its Art Deco aesthetic.
• The Fratello article suggested a price point of approximately 21,000 Euros for this new platinum Tank Américaine.
