Grey Rubberised Leather (Togo) Cartier Tank Strap
Chat with us now
The Cartier Tank has cemented its positioning as one of the most iconic watches of the past 100 years, and its popularity is going strong today. We are pleased to offer straps to fit the modern day Cartier Tank Must and Tank Louis Cartier, in Small, Large and Extra Large sizes.
This unique material blends together the properties of leather and rubber into one, bringing the touch and feel of leather with the waterproofness and scratch-resistant nature of rubber. With our Rubberised Leather series, we can now bring our signature handcrafting to a new collection of straps that is ready to take on the elements!
The Togo pattern is embossed onto the Rubberised Leather material. This truly is the best of both worlds, as it looks 100% like leather, but comes with all the benefit of rubber.
Note: We do not recommend swimming with these straps or soaking them in water for prolonged periods. While the material itself is waterproof, the construction is not, and submerging the strap in water will cause damage to the strap (for example, the glue holding the material together may no longer be effective).

Strap Length Guide
There are two sides per strap, which we refer to as the long end and the short end, which are represented by C and D respectively in the diagram below.
Our handcrafted leather straps come in 3 different lengths.
- Small (C: 105mm, D: 65mm)
- Medium (C: 115mm, D: 70mm)
- Large (C: 125mm, D: 75mm)
A quick way to decide on the length to get is based on your wrist size. Here is the general recommendation (if you are between sizes, we recommend to size up):
- Wrist size of 14.5cm - 17.0cm: Small
- Wrist size of 16.5cm - 19.0cm : Medium
- Wrist size of 18.5cm - 21.0cm: Large
If you need a strap that is shorter than Small (105/65), or longer than Large (125/75), you can always have the strap custom made.
| Measurements | Description | S | M | L |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A | Lug width | Varies by lug width (see product listing) |
||
| B | Buckle width | |||
| C | Long strap length | 105mm | 115mm | 125mm |
| D | Short strap length | 65mm | 70mm | 75mm |
| E | Distance to middle hole | 63mm | 71mm | 81mm |
| F | Distance between holes | 6mm | ||
| G | Size of holes | 1.8mm | ||
| Number of Strap Holes | 7 | 7 | 7 | |
Hope this quick guide helps! Finding the perfect length to get can be a little bit more complicated, as it also depends on the lug-to-lug distance of your watch, and even the shape of your wrist. For a more detailed guide on sizing, please check out this page.
Find Your Lug Width
If you're looking to purchase a strap for your watch, you will need to know the lug width of your watch. Lug width refers to "A" in this schematic below.
There are two ways to find out the lug width of your watch.
- Firstly, you can Google "<watch brand and model> lug width" and see if there is an answer from the brand's website, or some other websites.
- Alternatively, you can simply take a ruler and measure the lug width directly on your watch.
Lug widths are typically in whole numbers, and while the most common lug widths are between 18-22mm, they can go down to 8mm or up to 32mm even. Our ready stock straps are available in 16mm, 17mm, 18mm, 19mm, 20mm, 21mm, 22mm, 24mm and 26mm. If you need other lug widths, you can have it custom made.
You will then need to purchase a strap of the same lug width. For example, if your watch has a lug width of 20mm, you will need to purchase strap with a width of 20-16.
Note: Our Widths typically have two numbers, for example 20-16. The first number (20) refers to the lug width ("A" in the schematic above). The second number (16) refers to the buckle width ("B" in the schematic above). You just need to ensure that the first number matches the lug width of your watch.
Scratch-Resistant
Water-Resistant
Pliable
The strap is very soft and flexible, and is extremely comfortable with zero break-in required. This is owing to both the type of material used, and the overall construction of the strap.
Rubber Lining
The strap is crafted with a rubber lining, for increased sweat resistance while worn on the wrist.
Synthetic
The material used is synthetic and has no animal-based origins.
Customer Reviews
The strap look even better in person. Quality and craftmanship I would say is topnotch. Complements my tank must burgundy well.
