Cartier Must de Tank Vermeil Grey Art Deco Dial Full Set Box & Papers Ref. 590005 from 1998

Cartier Must de Tank Vermeil – Grey Art Deco Dial – Reference 590005

A beautifully preserved example of Cartier’s vintage design language, this Cartier Must de Tank Vermeil Reference 590005 features the elegant and highly distinctive Grey Art Deco dial — a two-tone composition enhanced by bold Roman numerals at 12, 3, 6, and 9 o’clock. The result is a dial that feels both architectural and refined, perfectly capturing the maison’s mastery of proportion and visual harmony.

Cased by a classic 23 × 30 mm vermeil case (sterling silver with gold plating), the watch retains Cartier’s unmistakable understated luxury.

This example is fitted with its original Cartier blue/grey alligator strap (worn but full of original character) and its original Cartier pin buckle in vermeil, preserving full period authenticity.

Adding to its desirability, the watch comes as a complete set, including:

• Original Cartier box

• Original Cartier papers

• Warranty papers signed and dated 24/12/1998

Inside beats the reliable Cartier Caliber 90, recently serviced by expert watchmakers. The watch is delivered in excellent working order and includes a 12-month mechanical guarantee for added confidence.

Why This Watch Stands Out

This Must de Tank Vermeil is far more than a stylish vintage accessory — it is a superbly documented and well-preserved piece of Cartier history. The rare Grey Art Deco dial, its gentle vintage patina, the original strap and buckle, and the full Cartier set elevate it into collector-grade territory.

Blending classical elegance with subtle Art Deco flair, this vintage Tank offers a unique opportunity to own a refined and complete Cartier package with provenance, originality, and enduring charm.
