Launched in the 1990s, the reference 1726 is the medium-sized version of the American Tank, produced in white, yellow or rose gold. It remained in production for nearly a decade, with several variations in dials and bracelets, as well as versions featuring diamond-set bezels offered in certain markets. Originally designed as a unisex timepiece, worn by both men and women, the 1726 owes much of its success to the fluidity of its curved silhouette, the defining visual signature of the American Tank, as well as to its versatile case size. Today, it remains one of the most iconic models in the collection within Cartier’s late 20th-century lineup, prized by collectors for the balance it strikes between the Tank’s historic design language and the comfort of a contemporary case.
