Cartier Must from Cartier Tank - Vermeil Gray Dial (1980s)

This vintage Cartier Must from Cartier Tank, produced in the 1980s, perfectly illustrates the timeless elegance and design sense of the Parisian house. Featuring its iconic rectangular vermeil case (sterling silver gold-plated), this vintage Cartier watch reprises the Art Deco lines of the original Tank while asserting a bold graphic aesthetic unique to the Must collection.

The eye is immediately drawn to its satin gray dial with a distinctive composition, featuring a brushed center framed by a black minute track and gilded Roman numerals. This luxury vintage watch retains all the historical codes of Cartier, including its crown adorned with its famous blue cabochon, an unmistakable signature of the brand.

Powered by a Swiss quartz movement combining precision and finesse, this men's watch — whose 23.5mm proportions make it ideal as a women's watch — offers exceptional comfort on the wrist. An emblematic piece rich in history, it is mounted on a vintage leather strap and is a prime choice for any collector of timeless design.

Why did we select this piece?

  • For its rare graphic dial: The combination of brushed gray and black minute track offers a much more modern and distinctive visual aspect than classic dials.
  • For its vermeil case: The luster of gold on a sterling silver base brings a warmth and elegance characteristic of the 1980s.
  • For its icon status: The Tank is one of the most famous designs in watchmaking history, ensuring lasting aesthetic and collectible value.
