This elegant Cartier Tank Française 20mm in stainless steel is presented in very good condition and was serviced in 2025. Featuring a white dial with Roman numeral hour markers, blued-steel hands and an integrated steel bracelet, it is a timeless choice for everyday wear, the office or a refined evening occasion.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What size is this Cartier Tank Francaise watch? A: This is the 20 mm version of the Tank Francaise in stainless steel, with the compact, bracelet-integrated silhouette the model is known for. It offers a refined, close-to-the-wrist look rather than an oversized fit.
Q: Will it fit my wrist? A: The bracelet currently fits a 17 cm wrist or smaller. It may be resized smaller by removing links, but a larger fit is not guaranteed since no extra links are listed in the product information.
Q: Is this watch quartz or mechanical? A: This watch has a quartz movement, so it is battery-powered. That means straightforward day-to-day use, reliable timekeeping, and no manual winding.
Q: What does serviced 2025 mean? A: It means the watch was serviced in 2025 before sale. The exact scope can vary, but on a quartz watch it typically relates to checking function and carrying out battery or seal-related work where needed. If you would like the service details for this specific piece, please contact us.
Q: What makes the Tank Francaise different from other Cartier Tank models? A: The Tank Francaise is especially known for its integrated link bracelet, which gives it a slightly sportier, more jewellery-like feel than strap-based Tank models while keeping the classic Roman numerals, blue hands, and rectangular Cartier dial layout.
Q: Is it suitable for everyday wear? A: Yes. The stainless steel case and bracelet, sapphire crystal, and quartz movement make it an easy elegant daily watch. This example is pre-owned and described as being in very good overall condition, with shiny hardware and light scratches.
Q: Is it water resistant? A: This reference is generally associated with light everyday water resistance only. We recommend treating it as splash-resistant rather than suitable for swimming, showering, or prolonged immersion, especially as it is pre-owned.
Q: What product information are included with this watch? A: This piece is listed with no product information included. If an original box, papers, or spare links are not mentioned on the page, they should not be assumed to be part of the sale.
Q: Are box and papers essential when buying a pre-owned Cartier watch? A: They can be helpful for collectability and resale, but they are not essential for enjoyment or authenticity on their own. On a pre-owned watch, condition, correct reference details, serial markings, and seller expertise are just as important.
Q: How do you authenticate this watch? A: Every watch sold by A Retro Tale is checked by specialists before listing. We assess model details, serial markings, materials, dial and hand configuration, and overall construction to ensure the watch is authentic and accurately described.
