It was made in 2011, is 36mm in diameter, and has a solid caseback – essentially, it's a greatest-hits version of what made Grand Seiko an insider's favorite in the early 2000s, and a wonderful example of why Grand Seiko went from cult classic to international phenomenon.
Grand Seiko has done a number of reissues of the original Grand Seiko design, but this is one of the best and also one of the closest to the spirit of the original.
Fun fact: in 1941 Cartier sold only 38 Tanks total, all models combined. The condition of the dial might have inched the estimate down a bit – there's some unmissable dial discoloration and the case is in what we might euphemistically call honest worn condition but considering that at this point in Cartier's history, every watch was something of a unique piece, I'd still call this one a little low. It's one of the most iconic Tank models (although hey, when it comes to Tanks they're kind of all iconic, albeit the term has been worn, haha, Pebble-smooth through overuse) with an EWC movement, and straight from the Paris mothership (albeit at a time when doing business in Paris was more challenging than usual, to put it mildly). We're living in a world where a vintage Pebble can go for between $300,000-400,00, so it seems that the estimate for this Tank Cintrée from 1941, which is $10,000-20,000, is really low. Records are being set with a frequency that is either alarming or encouraging, if you are a Cartier enthusiast, and depending on the depth of your purse.
