Cartier Tank Frances

If you own a watch from the Cartier Tank Frances range, you will absolutely love to hear how the company that created your beautiful watch was actually founded. It all began in Paris, Frances in the year of 1847 when the great Napoleon the third was in power in France and the stunning city of Paris was a booming place of sheer extravagance and luxury (much like it still is today!). Cartier was a jewelry and watchmaker and people flocked to this store to purchase one of its unique creations to own and cherish for years on end. The designs at this time were just as gorgeous as they are today, with innovative pieces up for grabs by the wealthy and elite few that could afford to own such a timeless piece with the label of Cartier imprinted or engraved somewhere on it.

Stars and celebrities all wore pieces; some even owned watches from the Cartier Tank Frances range. If you didn't own Cartier, you weren't recognized as having made it in the Hollywood cliques. Some of the models that are available include Cartier Tank Divan, Cartier Santos, and Cartier Tank American, plus Cartier Pasha, Cartier Santos Dumont, Cartier Santos 100, Cartier Tank Solo, Cartier Santos Demoiselle, Cartier Tank Françoise, Cartier Roadster and so many others - it's impossible to choose, as they're all so beautiful and precious. Whether you prefer complex creations, or just simple elegant watches - one thing is for sure; Cartier will definitely have something for you.

The Cartier Tank Frances range of watches will never date and will be timeless in every way for a long future is definitely guaranteed for any piece of jewelry or watch piece that carries the name of Cartier. But where did the name Cartier come from you might ask? Well, the company we all love so dearly today was started by a man called Louis-Francois Cartier and he only created pieces of jewelry for many, many years and watches were first produced by the company in 1904 only. The actual wristwatch that paved the future of Cartier as a watchmaker was actually made by non other than Louis-Francois Cartier's grandson, who also happened to go by the name of Louis. This first watch was called the Santos, as it was produced for an aviator from Brazil called Alberto Santos-Dumont.

After that very first watch was made, people started queuing and all wanting watches made by the famous Cartier brand. The Cartier Tank Frances was one of these later editions to be created. What was so unique about these watches at that time, you might wonder? Well, they were all jeweled and decked out in gorgeous designs (in true Cartier fashion!). The unique clasp that all Cartier watches carry was actually patented by the younger Louis. Your Cartier Tank Frances was actually inspired by the Allied Tank Commanders who were the defenders of France during the time of unrest in the First World War.
