Cartier Tank Must de Vermeil Burgundy Red Dial GM From 1980s

A striking Cartier Tank Must de Vermeil GM from the 1980s, featuring a beautiful burgundy red dial in one of Cartier’s most recognizable colors. With its early double-zero serial number (00) and classic manual-wind movement, this is a particularly charming example of the early Must de Cartier collection.

The 23 × 30 mm Grand Model case is crafted in vermeil, combining sterling silver with warm gold plating. Its elegant rectangular proportions are complemented by the distinctive long blue sapphire cabochon crown, a lovely detail of these early Tank Must creations.

The vibrant burgundy dial is beautifully contrasted by elegant golden hands. It displays signs of natural aging, giving the watch authentic vintage character while preserving the rich red tone that makes these lacquer dials so appealing. The mineral crystal remains spotless.

Inside beats the Cartier Calibre 78-1 manual-wind movement, freshly serviced by our watchmaker and running excellent.

Completing the watch is a handmade Belgian red leather strap, perfectly matching the warm burgundy tones of the dial.
