The year 2017 marks the 100th anniversary of Cartier Tank, a watch invented by Louis Cartier (a grandson of Cartier’s founder Louis-François Cartier) back in 1917.

Its case is both square and rectangle, and its strap is seamlessly integrated into vertical sidebars called "brancards," representing tank treads. The Tank was introduced in 1918, and during the next year, only six pieces watches were produced. Since its design is...

Blued steel is something that we often see in fine watchmaking. Steel screws used in watch movements are often blue, so are the hands. Burnished steel components are used in watch movements because of their high resistance to corrosion...
