The Tank Américaine watch Ref. CRWJTA0068 radiates timeless elegance in 18K white gold set with over 300 brilliant-cut diamonds, blending Cartier’s signature.
The Tank Américaine watch Ref. CRWJTA0068 epitomizes Cartier’s refined mastery of form, proportion, and elegance. Crafted in 18K white gold and adorned with brilliant-cut diamonds, this ladies’ jewelry watch embodies sophistication and heritage in perfect harmony. Its elongated rectangular shape pays homage to the legendary Tank design, first introduced in 1917 by Louis Cartier, yet reinterpreted for the modern era with fluid lines and contemporary grace.
Born from the original Tank watch, the Tank Américaine reflects over a century of Cartier’s design evolution. Its geometry is inspired by the robustness of military tanks, softened by the maison’s artistic vision to achieve perfect balance and proportion. Since its debut, the Tank Américaine has symbolized understated luxury and architectural precision — a watch that captures both strength and sensuality in its sleek, curved silhouette.
The case of the Tank Américaine Ref. WJTA0068 is crafted in rhodiumized 18K white gold (750/1000), lending the watch a luminous, mirror-like brilliance. The white gold is meticulously polished to perfection, exuding a radiant gleam that complements the shimmer of the diamonds. Its slender profile, with a thickness of just 6.8 mm, ensures effortless elegance and comfort on the wrist. The dimensions — 35.4 x 19.4 mm — make it an ideal small model, designed for feminine refinement.
This exquisite timepiece is generously set with 42 brilliant-cut diamonds on the case, totaling 1.13 carats, and an additional 270 pavé brilliant-cut diamonds on the bracelet, adding 1.03 carats of brilliance. Every gemstone is hand-selected by Cartier’s master gem-setters for its purity and fire. Together, these diamonds transform the Tank Américaine into a radiant jewel of light — a masterpiece of jewelry artistry and horological precision.
The silvered satin-finished dial captures subtle reflections, offering a refined backdrop for the iconic blued-steel sword-shaped hands. Its simplicity and symmetry reflect Cartier’s enduring design philosophy — elegance without excess. The crown, crafted in 18K white gold, features Cartier’s signature octagonal shape, adorned with an inverted diamond that enhances the watch’s jewelry appeal. Every detail demonstrates Cartier’s devotion to craftsmanship and excellence.
At the heart of the Tank Américaine Ref. WJTA0068 lies a high-autonomy quartz movement (Caliber 057), known for its reliability and precision. Designed for effortless timekeeping, it offers a long-lasting power reserve and requires minimal maintenance. With hours and minutes functions, this movement ensures both practicality and elegance — the perfect fusion of beauty and performance that defines Cartier’s jewelry watchmaking.
The rectangular case of the Tank Américaine showcases Cartier’s mastery of geometry. Its softly curved profile hugs the wrist, while its elongated form accentuates elegance and femininity. The minimalist design is timeless — a silhouette that remains instantly recognizable as Cartier. Every line and curve has been carefully calculated to achieve aesthetic balance and comfort.
The 18K white gold bracelet, partially set with diamonds, complements the radiant case with perfect fluidity. The design ensures a seamless transition between case and bracelet, symbolizing unity and refinement. The bracelet is fitted with Cartier’s signature rhodium-finished double folding clasp, offering both security and elegance. Each link reflects light beautifully, wrapping the wrist in a soft shimmer of gold and diamonds.
Despite its delicate appearance, the Tank Américaine is engineered for everyday elegance. The sapphire crystal protects the dial from scratches, ensuring enduring clarity. With a water resistance of 3 bar (30 meters / 100 feet), the watch offers practical durability for daily wear while retaining its refined allure. It is a perfect blend of functionality and haute couture craftsmanship.
