The brushed steel caseback is held in place by 8 screws, and as usual, it is engraved with some of the watch’s general information such as materials and the serial number. And at the case’s right hand side, there lays one of the series signature design element, an integrated nine-sided (nanogonal) crown in 18K Rose Gold, with fluted round top that is set with Blue faceted sapphire decoration.

Typical to the Tank, its silvered and lacquered flinqué dial is fashioned with a classic, symmetrical layout design that clearly stating its patrimony identity as a Cartier, in which, there are sword shaped Blued steel hands, a slim sweep seconds hand, painted Black italicized Roman numeral hour markers that is complimented with painted minute markers squaring the inner rim, and a legible date window at the 3 o’clock position within.The ones fitted inside, Calibre 077, is a finely tuned Swiss-automatic movement that is both rugged and accurate. This fairly slim mechanical self-winding calibre is personalized by Cartier based on the top grade ETA 2671.
