The Cartier Privé collection is a celebrated tribute to the Maison's rich watchmaking history, offering collectors and enthusiasts an exclusive glimpse into Cartier's mastery. Each year, the collection unveils a new interpretation of one of the brand’s most iconic timepieces, reimagining classic designs with a modern twist. These limited-edition pieces not only celebrate Cartier's heritage but also showcase the House’s unwavering commitment to innovation and artistry. For those who truly appreciate the art of horology, the Cartier Privé collection is a coveted treasure.

This year, the spotlight falls on the Tank à Guichets, a legendary model that first debuted in 1928. Known for its bold and unique design, the Tank à Guichets is a striking departure from traditional timepieces, with its digital-style display of hours and minutes—a true fusion of technical innovation and refined aesthetics. The new iteration of this classic timepiece is a perfect example of how Cartier continues to push boundaries while honoring its watchmaking legacy.

The new Tank à Guichets stays faithful to the original with its distinctive design, featuring hour and minute apertures at 12 o’clock and 6 o’clock, respectively, and the winding crown placed at 12 o’clock. At the heart of this remarkable piece is the specially developed Calibre 9755 MC, a hand-wound movement with jumping hours and dragging minutes, reflecting Cartier’s dedication to precision engineering.

The watch’s case is a perfect balance of contrasting finishes, with a satin-finished surface that beautifully contrasts against the polished horizontal brancards, emphasizing its sleek and elegant silhouette. The central face, available in brushed gold or platinum, further elevates the watch’s sophistication, making it a statement of both technical excellence and timeless style.

The Tank à Guichets is more than just a watch; it’s a piece of horological history, beautifully reinterpreted for the modern collector. A true reflection of Cartier's ongoing creative spirit, this timepiece blends innovation with heritage, offering a captivating piece that will undoubtedly remain a treasured part of the Cartier Privé collection for years to come.

Available in 4 versions: 3 truthful to the original 1928 model in platinum, rose gold and yellow, in limited production. In addition, a new reinterpretation of this watch design with oblique apertures and is limited to 200 pieces.
