The year 2002 sees the birth of a watch that devotes a certain space to time. Extended time, offered a luxurious setting, a form and frame within which to express itself. Its shape? The rectangle of a watch face, but turned on its side, lying horizontally. The hours stretch into the infinite perspective of extravagant, elongated Roman numerals. Unrestrained, time dives into it, abandoning itself to the past, then flying back to the present. The past is recognizable; it is Cartier?s taste for distinctively shaped watches, precise geometry and its faithfulness to classicism. The present is vitality, energy, the immediate union of time and space. The Tank Divan watch is a resolute watch, instantly at ease, which it owes to its size: attractive, broad. The strap is adaptable, creating an effect of added sturdiness at the wrist. Of course, the future is taking shape. Tomorrow?s time is innovative and unpredictable. For time and for Cartier, it will be told from a new perspective, shaking up the order of things, changing old habits. The Cartier Tank Divan comes in three sizes (mini, small, and large) in steel, yellow gold, and white gold on leather strap. Some models are embellished with diamonds. The Cartier Tank Divan is equipped with a quartz movement in the mini and small models, and a self-winding mechanical movement in the large model, and is water resistant up to a depth of 30 meters.
