Overview
The Cartier Tank Louis Cartier Large in yellow gold represents one of the most enduring expressions of the Tank lineage, a design conceived by Louis Cartier in 1917 and refined across more than a century. The reference WGTA0067 presents the large case — measuring 33.7 mm × 25.5 mm — in 18-carat yellow gold, paired with a silvered dial bearing the line's signature blued-steel hands and Roman numeral hour markers. A quartz movement keeps the profile exceptionally slim, preserving the architectural elegance that defines the Tank Louis Cartier.
History
The Tank Louis Cartier is widely regarded as the most faithful heir to Louis Cartier's original 1917 design, distinguished by its clean brancards and absence of a bezel step. Cartier has maintained the Tank Louis Cartier as a cornerstone of its fine watchmaking catalogue for decades, periodically refreshing references while preserving the essential geometry. The WGTA0067, introduced in 2021, continues this tradition in the large format, offering the warmth of yellow gold to collectors who favour the classic precious-metal expression of the model.
