How do I bid? Start here

Introduction

Launched in 1921, two years after the original Cartier Tank debuted in 1919, the slim and elongated Tank Cintree has remained in the brand’s repertoire intermittently ever since its launch all those years ago. Typically offered as a limited edition offering irrespective of variant, the example we have here is yet another of the collection's limited edition references, the ref. WSTA0025. Launched in 2018 and limited to just 50 pieces, this limited edition collection stays true to the Cintree’s aesthetic and heritage as a typically low-volume model. It thus retains the Cintree’s iconic standing amongst Cartier’s collectors and was offered only to select Cartier VIPs. Featuring the Cintree’s signature precious metal construction, this 18k rose gold beauty spans 46.3mm lug to lug and is just 23mm wide. With its black dial, rose gold hands, and soft off-white dial inscriptions, the ref. WGTA0025 retains the essence of Cartier in as classical a fashion as we have learned to expect from the French watchmaker but with a modern twist that is elegant, sophisticated and luxurious.

THE DIAL
THE DIAL

Boasting a contemporary take on the Cintrée's dial, the ref. WSTA0025 features a black display with rose gold sword-shaped hands and white inscriptions for its hour markers and Cartier's signature chemin-de-fer minute track.

THE CONSTRUCTION
THE CONSTRUCTION

Featuring its elongated and curved construction, the Cintree wraps around the contours of the wrist in such a way that very few other timepieces can quite emulate.

Our Perspective

A watch celebrating one of Cartier's most understated designs, the WSTA0025 distills the essence of what makes the Cintree so magical and offers it in a package that is decidedly lavish, elegant and historically-inspired all at once.
