商品説明
This is a quartz model of Cartier's long-selling "Must Tank LM" model.
It has been comprehensively serviced by Cartier (Richemont Japan).
The Must Tank case is made of silver 925, with a thick gold plating (gold coating) called 'vermeil' applied to it.
This model is equipped with a highly practical quartz (battery-powered) movement, manufactured from the 1980s to the 1990s.
Its appeal lies in its ease of use, keeping accurate time while enjoying the vintage aesthetic.
The dial was replaced with a new ivory dial (Roman numeral index) during the manufacturer's repair in April 2026.
It is in an exceptionally beautiful condition, free from the cracks and discoloration typical of vintage pieces.
It has the inscription "SWISS MADE" at 6 o'clock and the "CARTIER" secret signature at the 7 o'clock index.
The hands have also been replaced with new blued steel hands.
They glow a vivid blue depending on the angle of the light, creating a striking contrast with the ivory dial.
The crystal (windshield) has also been replaced with a new one, ensuring excellent visibility.
The main parts have been renewed by the manufacturer, and both the interior and exterior are in a comfortable condition for use.
The Must Tank LM (Large Model) was originally released as a men's size.
Today, its compact and elegant size makes it suitable for both men and women, as a unisex item.
Its classic and sophisticated ambiance makes it suitable for various occasions, from business to formal settings.
