Cartier brought the Tank Normale into its Privé collection in 2023 as the collection’s seventh opus. The release pairs the familiar Tank form with a hand-wound caliber 070, but its metal, bracelet or strap, and numbered-edition details depend on the reference. The specifications below are Cartier’s published figures, not independent measurements; this is a reference-led introduction rather than a firsthand account of handling the watch.
Where the 2023 Tank Normale sits in Cartier Privé
In its verified launch video published March 30, 2023, Cartier called the Tank Normale the seventh opus in Cartier Privé, placing it alongside the Crash, Tank Cintrée, Tonneau, Tank Asymétrique, Cloche de Cartier, and Tank Chinoise. Watch Cartier’s launch announcement.

Cartier’s account says Louis Cartier made the Tank in 1917 and that it was sold two years later, in 1919. Those dates are Cartier’s own historical framing for the collection, rather than an independent archival assessment.

Three Mexican-listed references, three distinct configurations
Cartier’s Mexican listings distinguish these numbered editions by reference. The stated edition quantities and configurations apply to those references; they should not be combined into one universal Tank Normale description.

| Reference | Case material | Strap or bracelet | Numbered edition |
|---|---|---|---|
| WGTA0108 | Yellow gold | Alligator strap | 200 pieces |
| WGTA0110 | Yellow gold | Bracelet | 100 pieces |
| WGTA0111 | Platinum | Bracelet | 100 pieces |
Cartier lists caliber 070 for these three references and describes the Mexican listings as “No hermético”—not water-resistant. A separate Cartier Monaco listing, CRWGTA0407, describes a yellow-gold Tank Normale with a blue-lacquered dial and an alligator strap, as well as the same core case dimensions and movement. It is a distinct regional listing, not evidence that every Privé reference shares that dial or configuration. See Cartier Monaco’s CRWGTA0407 listing.
What to verify before choosing a reference
Water resistance
Do not infer water resistance for one reference from another region’s or configuration’s product page. The Mexican pages for WGTA0108, WGTA0110, and WGTA0111 explicitly say they are not water-resistant. Check the current Cartier page for the exact reference before treating it as suitable for wet conditions.

Price and availability
No universal current price or stock figure is established for the 2023 editions. Cartier’s Monaco listing directs shoppers to contact a boutique or ambassador for purchase information. Its Turkey page is a current regional product listing, but it also carries a Watches and Wonders 2026 banner; that later material does not establish what was available at the 2023 launch or whether a particular launch edition is currently available. Confirm price and availability with Cartier in the relevant market.
Dial, hands, and materials
Compare the exact reference rather than relying on the collection name alone. Metal, strap or bracelet, dial and hands, edition quantity, and regional listing can differ. Cartier’s Mexican pages specify the three references above; the Monaco listing’s blue-lacquered dial belongs to CRWGTA0407 and should not be generalized to all Tank Normale models.
