SUMMARY

Introduced in 1917, the design of the Cartier Tank’s unique case was inspired by the Renault tanks used by the French Army during World War I. Since then, Cartier has released a number of subsidiary lines including the Francaise back in 1996. Incorporating the same extended flanks that have made the original such an icon of watchmaking, the angular lines provide a more contemporary look. This Francaise XL Chrooflex reference incorporates a function-rich quartz calibre, displaying radial date and chronograph complications.
