The Watch
A contemporary interpretation of one of the most iconic silhouettes in watchmaking.
The Cartier Tank is a true design classic, defined for over a century by its clean, rectangular lines. With the Tank Solo XL, this timeless design takes on a more contemporary presence, combining its distinctive proportions with a generous 31 × 40.8 mm case and an automatic movement — making it both elegant and highly wearable.
Reference W5200028 features a stainless-steel case and the characteristic silvered dial with Roman numerals, blued sword-shaped hands and Cartier’s signature cabochon-set crown. A discreet date aperture at 6 o’clock adds practicality without compromising the beautifully balanced design. The dial is protected by sapphire crystal. Inside is the automatic Cartier Calibre 049, giving the Tank Solo XL the appeal of a traditional mechanical timepiece.
The Tank Solo XL is a compelling choice for those who appreciate Cartier for what has made the maison so enduring: distinctive design, instant recognisability and an elegance that extends well beyond the traditional dress watch.
