Cartier Tank Américaine — White Gold – Silver

Reference: W2606956

A Large-model Tank Américaine in 18k white gold, part of the elongated, curved-case Tank family Cartier introduced in 1989 for the American market. This reference carries the signature silvered guilloché dial, black Roman numerals and blued sword hands over a self-winding automatic movement, with a date window at 6 o'clock. Every piece is sourced and authenticated before sale. Note: this exact reference number could not be independently corroborated on a dealer or Cartier listing; the specifications above are drawn from the closely related, well-documented Large white-gold Tank Américaine references (e.g. W2603256, W2603656, W2609956), which share an identical case, dial and movement.
