Introduced to the Cartier collections in 1989, the Tank Américaine was inspired by the design of the 1920s Tank Cintrée. In 1994, a chronograph version appeared, marketed under the reference 2312 and equipped with a Chronoflex quartz movement. Invented by Piaget in 1991, the Chronoflex was one of the world's smallest quartz movements. Combining a calendar and a chronograph, this remains a special watch in the Cartier universe.
