The Cartier Tank Louis Cartier Ref. 96065 “Extra Plate” is an exceptionally refined expression of the Tank, combining ultra-thin proportions with the understated elegance that defines vintage Cartier. Produced during the 1980s, this example is distinguished by its desirable “Paris” signed dial, a detail particularly appreciated by collectors of period Cartier.

Its slim rectangular case is crafted from solid 18k yellow gold, measuring approximately 23mm by 30mm and sitting elegantly against the wrist. The eggshell dial features classic Roman numerals, blued steel hands, and Cartier’s discreet secret signature, preserving the unmistakable aesthetic of the Tank Louis Cartier.

Inside is the Frédéric Piguet Calibre 21, an exceptionally thin manual winding movement that allows the case to maintain its distinctive “Extra Plate” profile. The combination of precious metal construction, traditional mechanical watchmaking, and beautifully restrained proportions gives this reference a character that feels distinctly Cartier.
