Cartier Tank Day Date, Yellow Gold, Rare 1960 Design
The Cartier Tank Day Date in yellow gold, dating to circa 1960, is a rare and exquisite interpretation of the iconic Tank design. This particular model stands out due to its highly unusual and intricate dial.
The outer ring features gold Arabic numerals marking the hours, while an inner red Arabic numeral ring elegantly displays the days of the month, indicated by a red spearhead hand. Further inside, the classic minute track is surrounded by another inner series of gold Arabic numerals marking 2, 4, 8, and 10. At 12 o’clock, a day window with red English first letters adds functionality, and at 6 o’clock, a subsidiary seconds dial overlaps with the calendar date numerals, creating a layered and dynamic aesthetic.
This extraordinary combination of form and function is powered by a manual-winding movement, housed in a classic yellow gold Tank case, embodying Cartier’s hallmark elegance and innovation.
