If, for some reason, you can’t get your hands on the limited edition, you still have options. Cartier will offer three additional references: One in yellow gold, one in rose gold, and a third in platinum. Each of them is an homage to the original 1928 Tank à Guichets and places the hours at 12 o’clock and the minutes at 6 o’clock. What’s more, the color of each numeral track has been precision-engineered to match their alligator straps: dark green for the yellow gold, dark gray for the rose gold, and burgundy for the platinum version.
Case Size: 37.6 x 24.8 mm
Case Material: Yellow gold, rose gold, and platinum

Price: $47,700 in rose gold and yellow gold; $55,500 in platinum
