Cartier Tank Louis LM Manual-Wind Paris Dial Ref. 78086
Cartier’s Tank Louis LM Ref. 78086 is a classic model from the Tank collection. Produced in the late 1980s and powered by the manual-wind Cal. 78-1, this watch represents a later version of the manual-wind Tank Louis with a traditional configuration.
The white Paris dial is original to the period. Faint cracking is present, though it is difficult to notice from a distance, and the dial retains its classic character. The price reflects the dial cracking, making this an approachable option for a first Cartier or for those who wish to wear a Tank Louis regularly.
