The Tank Louis ref. 96065, introduced in the 1980s, replaced the previous ref. 78086 and was a direct descendant of the Tank known as the “Louis Cartier.” 
The white enamel color dial of the previous generation was replaced by a guilloché decoration. All the other characteristic features were retained: elongated Roman numerals, a minute track, blued hands and the classic crown adorned with a blue cabochon. The rectangular case, made of yellow gold, has balanced and highly refined proportions, measuring 23 × 30 mm, in the grand tradition of Cartier's ultra-thin city watches.

This ‘ultra-thin’ model is equipped with the Cartier 96 caliber, a derivative of the Frédéric Piguet Cal. 21 caliber, which allows for a case thickness of only 4.2 mm. It is also one of the ‘Pre-CPCP’ models produced before the launch of the ‘Cartier Paris Collection Privée’ in 1998. This collection revisits Cartier's archives, bringing back into fashion historic models that had been overlooked for years, from the Tortue to the Tank Basculante.
Models prior to the CPCP do not bear the word “Paris” under the Cartier signature at 12 o'clock and feature the signature “Swiss Made” at 6 o'clock instead of “Swiss.”

While the Cartier Tank Collection Privée models are more famous, this 96065 is a lesser-known model that laid the foundations for this collection, while remaining faithful to the spirit of the historic Tank watches.
