Cartier Premast Tank European Hand-Winding Model Ref. 4
The Must Tank, a watch that was released to the general public, historically the popular "Tank Louis".
The rare early Must Tank is called the Pre-Must Tank, and this one is a European-market Pre-Must Tank, produced in even smaller quantities.
The early cannonball crown gives it an exceptional atmosphere.
The European specifications are almost identical to the Tank Louis in terms of basic construction, with the main differences being that the case is vermeil instead of 18K gold, and the dial notation is in cursive instead of block letters.
For this reason, it is popular because it does not look like a Louis at first glance, but it is a very rare item.
With the soaring prices of Louis, this is a highly recommended item.
This item has some discoloration on the dial and minor scratches on the case, so we are selling it at an affordable price.
In terms of condition, there are few dents and scratches on the case, and the original plating remains well.
We have hardly polished it in order to preserve the original plating, so there are some scratches, but we believe the condition is good.
The case back also has some minor scratches, but the plating remains well, and the serial number is also present. The overall condition is good.
Both the hands and glass are clean, and it is considered to be in very good condition for a Pre-Must. The hands are blue, just like the Louis.
The dial shows slight discoloration overall.
The discoloration is a light ivory tone overall, but it does not look bad as an atmosphere, and it is not as ivory as a Must, so I think the texture is good.
There are some stains, but overall the condition is considered good.
The buckle is a genuine GP from a different era.
