While the Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso slides on its horizontal axis, the Basculante pivots vertically within a frame, a mechanism that allows it to flip 360 degrees and even function as a small desk clock. This ingenious design, with its crown positioned at 12 o'clock, offers a unique tactile experience while retaining the timeless geometry of the original Tank. It is a piece of interactive design that solves the problem of protecting the crystal with a distinct sense of Parisian style.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\"\u003eA Clean Example With A Blank Canvas\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\"\u003eThis 1999 example presents a fantastic opportunity to own one of the most interesting Tank variations. It retains its original Cartier strap and buckle, which is a key detail for collectors of this reference. The polished caseback currently features a personal engraving. As a courtesy, we can have this engraving professionally removed prior to delivery, providing a clean slate for the next owner. This service makes the watch ready for personalization or to be enjoyed in its original, unmarked state.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\"\u003eHonest Condition With Original Details\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\"\u003eThe watch is in overall good condition, consistent with a piece from its era that has been properly cared for. The stainless steel case shows light signs of wear but remains unpolished, holding the sharp lines of the Tank design well. The classic white dial with black Roman numerals is clean. The original strap and buckle are still fitted, adding to its authenticity. As with every watch we offer, this piece has been verified as mechanically sound and is ready to wear.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\"\u003eA Conversation On The Wrist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\"\u003eThe Basculante is for the individual who appreciates not just iconic design, but also clever engineering. It’s a watch that invites interaction. The act of flipping the case is satisfying, a small mechanical ritual that connects you to the piece in a way a static watch cannot. It offers all the timeless elegance of a Cartier Tank but with a compelling mechanical twist that makes it a constant point of interest and a genuine conversation starter.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Specs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong style=\"color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\"\u003eReference:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\"\u003e 2386\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong style=\"color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\"\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\"\u003e Tank Basculante\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong style=\"color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\"\u003eYear:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\"\u003e 1999\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong style=\"color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\"\u003eMovement:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\"\u003e Quartz\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong style=\"color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\"\u003eCase Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\"\u003e 22x32mm\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong style=\"color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\"\u003eBezel:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\"\u003e Stainless Steel\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong style=\"color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\"\u003eStrap:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\"\u003e (New) Red Leather Strap, Original Cartier Buckle\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong style=\"color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\"\u003eMetal:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\"\u003e Stainless Steel\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong style=\"color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\"\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\"\u003e 886\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Cartier","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55086285062435,"sku":"10886","price":6800.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0889\/6099\/1523\/files\/DSCF0649_3540163.jpg?v=1778777133","url":"https:\/\/dannysvintagewatches.com\/products\/cartier-tank-basculante-2386-stainless-steel-white-roman-dial","provider":"Danny's Vintage Watches","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
