History and Significance
The Tank Must de Cartier 590005 follows the proportions of the classic Tank Louis at 23 by 30 mm, but with the Must de Cartier construction of a sterling silver case plated in 18k yellow gold. This example features what collectors nickname the column dial, a configuration where the Roman numerals are separated into two vertical sections with gold strips framing the layout. The dial has an ivory cream tone that complements the warmth of the gold plated case, a design that became a recognizable variation within the Must line during the 1980s and 1990s.
This dial layout represents one of the more unusual Must variants and has become increasingly sought after as these models age.
Writer’s Thoughts
The column dial gives this example a distinct identity within the Must lineup. It keeps the recognizable Tank look but adds a graphic layout that feels more design-driven than the standard Roman arrangement. It wears with the same proportions as the Tank Louis but at a more approachable price point.
