Details

The Enduring Form Of Essential Design

The Cartier Tank stands as a pillar of twentieth-century watchmaking, its design a direct translation of military utility into wearable art. Conceived by Louis Cartier in 1917, the rectangular case with its integrated lugs immediately imposed a new order and geometry onto the wristwatch. The visual language of the Tank, with its Roman numeral dial, sword-shaped hands, and cabochon crown, has remained virtually unchanged through every subsequent generation, solidifying its status as the definitive dress watch.

A Classical Complication On An Icon

This 1990s Tank 8190 brings a classic horological element to the iconic design with its moonphase complication. Crafted in 18K yellow gold, the watch marries the timeless elegance of the Tank silhouette with a celestial display on a white Roman numeral dial. The quartz movement ensures modern reliability and effortless daily wear, making this an excellent example of Cartier's enduring legacy. It offers the precision of a contemporary timepiece while retaining the distinct aesthetic that has defined Cartier for over a century.

Well-Preserved And Complete With Papers

This example is in good condition. The white Roman moonphase dial and crystal are in very good shape. The 18K yellow gold case shows good preservation and remains unpolished, retaining its original lines. The watch functions as it should, and it comes on its original leather strap and buckle. As with every watch we offer, this piece has been verified as mechanically sound and is ready to wear.

Effortless Elegance For Any Occasion

For someone seeking the quintessential Cartier experience with a subtle twist, this Tank Moonphase is an ideal choice. Its 23x30mm dimensions offer a classic fit that transitions seamlessly from formal wear to more casual settings. The 18K yellow gold construction ensures a lasting presence, while the moonphase indicator adds a layer of visual interest and charm. It is a watch that embodies both the practicality of a quartz movement and the enduring style of one of watchmaking's most important designs.

What Our Clients Say About Us

I knew I was gonna like Danny, based on his name, but nothing could’ve prepared me for how great of an experience this was. He had the most beautiful 70s Seamaster Cosmic on his website and I was set to be married 2 days later - I arranged to buy it but before leaving we both realized it needed to be serviced. I panicked, because I was literally buying this for my wedding, and Danny being the legend he is, loaned me a nearly identical Seamaster to make sure I could get through the event Never have I had someone go so above and beyond for me, especially while purchasing one of the lesser priced items in their inventory. He serviced my watch and exchanged it with me after the wedding on a super fast turnaround timeline. I would sincerely recommend you visit this guy, you will not be disappointed Edit: adding a pic of the loaner (two tone) and the owner (crosshair)

Great service and shop. Danny and his team were incredibly accommodating, professional, and kind. Great selection of vintage watches. Their store is the hidden gem in the diamond district.

This was my first real luxury watch purchase, a Rolex 15200 Date 34mm, I own Tissots and a Laco, but those are entry level luxury watches. I found Danny’s Vintage Watches online, and had great feedback both on Google, Chrono24 and the Reddit watch community. So decided to give him a shot as buying online can be a crap shoot. Ordered Monday night, was at my doorstep Friday morning. Despite the watch being over 30 years old, serial number says it’s from 91, the watch looked new. Didn’t come with box or papers, and was shipped in a plastic sleeve wrapped in bubble wrap. Danny was always available to answer questions. I’ll be buying from Danny again for the next purchase…saw a couple of Speedmasters on his site I liked….
