About this reference
The Cartier Tank Cintrée reference 4176 was produced during the mid-1940s, representing a specific iteration of the elongated, curved case design first introduced in 1921. Collectors value this reference for its 18k yellow gold construction and its mechanical manual-wind movement, typically a caliber sourced from European Watch and Clock Co. The dial often features traditional Roman numerals, a chemin de fer minute track, and blued steel Breguet-style hands. Due to the low production volumes characteristic of mid-century Cartier, surviving examples are rare. On the secondary market, these timepieces generally command prices in the mid-to-high five-figure range, though exceptional examples can reach low six-figures. A notable auction result occurred at Phillips in 2021, where a 1940s yellow gold Cintrée sold for approximately $118,000, illustrating the premium placed on original condition and period-correct components in these vintage models.
