At SIHH 2009, Cartier will present an exceptional haute horlogerie complication within the iconic form of its Tank Americaine watch.

The Cartier Tank Americaine Tourbillon Volant watch is animated by the hand-wound Calibre 9452 MC, Cartier’s first in-house tourbillon caliber.

The movement comprises 19 jewels and 142 spinning, moving and rotating parts beeping at 21,600 bph and providing a 50 hours power reserve.

The younger square-cut sibling offers a 18k pink gold eye-catching finish and a beveled crown set with a sapphire cabochon as highlight alongside the transparent case-back made of sapphire crystal.
