About The Cartier Tank Américaine 2482:
The Cartier Tank Américaine is known for its elongated rectangular case and slightly curved profile, giving it a more fluid wrist presence than the classic flat Tank case. It keeps the core Cartier design elements: Roman numeral dial, blue hands, cabochon crown, and precious-metal construction.
This ref. 2482 is crafted in 18K yellow gold with a matching gold bracelet, making it both a watch and a jewelry piece. The blue sword hands and blue cabochon crown are classic Cartier design signatures rather than unusual features, while the recent Cartier service and active two-year warranty are important parts of this example’s value.
With its 18K yellow gold construction, 76-gram total weight, Cartier service documentation, box, travel pouch, and 9.5/10 condition, this Tank Américaine is a clean example of Cartier’s gold ladies bracelet-watch design.
