What Makes A Tank A Tank?

The Swiss made super clone Cartier Tank’s history is part of every watch enthusiast’s basic education (or at least, by God, it should be). Louis Cartier was lucky enough to be a little long in the tooth for front line duty, but he did see his share of action as a driver and according to Francesca Cartier-Brickell’s The luxury Cartier super clone watches, he claimed that it was on a visit to the front lines that he got the idea for the best fake Tank watch.

The Tank is called the AAA best sale super clone Cartier Tank UK because it looks like a tank – specifically, the Renault FT, which military historians often call the first modern fake tank. It had a fully rotating turret, and on each side of the hull, an enormous set of caterpillar treads that projected well beyond the front and back of the vehicle. These treads would become the inspiration for the brancards on each side of the Swiss made replica Tank watch, which act as lugs and which are the attachment points for the strap. A prototype of the first super clone Tank, the Normale, was supposedly given to General John “Black Jack” Pershing, who was the commander of American forces in Europe during the war.

There is an extant picture of Pershing wearing what looks a lot like a Tank but the story remains unverified, although definitely possible. In 1919, however, the Tank Normale was released commercially – it was a special order and just six were made. And, in 1921, a version of the Tank with elegantly rounded brancards was sold for the first time. That’s the watch that became known as the Tank Louis Cartier.

Past And Present

For most of its history, the Swiss made super clone Cartier Tank remained a pretty exclusive super clone watch. As a rule, the three boutiques in London, New York, and Paris didn’t keep them in stock. They were made to order and until the family withdrew from the business, small production numbers were the rule.

In the 1970s all that changed with the introduction of the AAA high-quality Must de Cartier Tank super clone watches. Must de Cartier replica watches UK was democratic luxury – the model was high design, low cost, and mass appeal, which was completely new territory for luxury super clone Cartier. It was also part of a larger revolution taking place in the luxury industry, where brand cachet and prestige began to move to the foreground.

Quartz was a natural part of that transition – easier to produce than mechanical movements, accurate, and undemanding to own, they became part of not just the watchmaking vocabulary at perfect super clone Cartier, but in the industry as a whole and especially for what used to be called “dress” super clone watches, they were a great way for luxury watch brands to not just stay in the game, but stay healthy.
