The Tank Chinoise, launched in 1922, stands out within the Tank family thanks to its added horizontal bars inspired by Asian architectural motifs, giving it a more graphic and distinctive look. Though it remains true to the Tank’s core identity, it is notably rarer and more unusual than other models, which makes reference 66009 especially appealing to collectors. *Bei diesem Los werden 8,1% MWST auch auf den Zuschlagspreis erhoben.
