Since its debut in 1917, the Cartier Tank watch has garnered a divergent group of fans, from Grace Kelly to Andy Warhol to Michelle Obama. Over the years, the brand has introduced variations on the iconic timepiece, including the Tank Américaine in 1989 and the Tank Française in 1996, odes to the New York and Paris Cartier boutiques, respectively.
This year, a new city is paid tribute: London. The newly-introduced Tank Anglaise rounds out the trifecta of watches named to honor Cartier’s three flagship boutiques, and comes in rose, yellow or white gold, and a version set all over with brilliant-cut diamonds. British model and girl-about-town Poppy Delevingne was photographed with her father by David Bailey to celebrate the new design, which launches in Cartier stores and online June 22.
