This Cartier Tank Américaine GM reference 1736 1 is a refined and elegant interpretation of one of Cartier’s most iconic rectangular designs. Crafted entirely in 18k white gold, the case measures 26 by 45 millimeters and is paired with its original Cartier white gold pin buckle, creating a cohesive and luxurious presentation on the wrist. The elongated form of the Américaine is a modern evolution of the classic Tank Cintrée, offering slightly bolder proportions while retaining the same graceful curvature and timeless elegance. Its white dial is decorated with Cartier’s Roman numerals, blued steel hands and a chemin de fer minute track, details that together emphasize the maison’s distinctive design language. Powered by a hand wound movement, this watch preserves the slim profile and traditional charm that makes the Américaine one of Cartier’s most sophisticated models. It remains in good overall condition with natural signs of wear, unpolished surfaces, sharp hallmarks and its original Cartier leather strap paired with the matching Cartier white gold pin buckle. Offered as a full set from 2002, it stands out as a complete and beautifully preserved example of Cartier’s commitment to refinement and enduring style.
