Baby Blue Alcantara Cartier Santos-Dumont Strap
Chat with us now
Cartier Santos-Dumont line is extremely well-received and very versatile with leather straps given the dressy nature of the watch. However, there is a lack of 3rd-party strap options as a special insert is needed to ensure that the straps fit flush with the watch. While regular straps could be used, it does not create an integrated fit that flows nicely with the case, which is not ideal. We are now able to craft integrated straps using the same metal adapters, to craft a strap that is a perfect fit for the Cartier Santos-Dumont. Read more about this release here.
Alcantara material from Italy is a cutting-edge material that offers unparalleled aesthetic, technical and sensory qualities. While it is most similar to suede and microfiber, it would be inaccurate to categorise Alcantara as any of those material. It is most commonly used in the interior of luxury cars, but its uses has since expanded to everyday goods like wallets, card holders, phone covers, bags etc. It is extremely soft to the touch, and provides a very luxurious feel when made into a strap.

What's Included
Made to Fit the Cartier Santos-Dumont Watches
Our straps are made with a metal adapter to provide a flush fit with the Cartier Santos-Dumont watches, and comes with a quick release spring bar. A seamless transition from watch to strap!
Saddle Stitched by Hand with Linen Thread
Every strap is saddle stitched by hand by our leather artisans. Unlike lock stitch created by machines, a saddle stitch is more durable as it is made of two independent stitches that forms a knot at every stitch. Linen thread in 0.35mm thickness was selected for a fine and natural weave.
Sealed Edges for Long-Term Durability
Our edges are finished with multiple layers of edge paint to seal the raw edges. The edges are sanded and edge paint is applied. After the first layer of edge paint has dried, another round of sanding and another layer of edge paint is applied. This process repeats until the edge paint is smooth and uniform.
Hypoallergenic Zermatt Leather for Lining
The straps are lined with Zermatt leather from Haas tannery, specially developed for use as a lining material. It is soft to the touch and comfortable even after hours of wear. The leather is water- and sweat-resistant and works well even in hot and humid climate such as Singapore.
316L Stainless Steel Cartier-Style Buckle
Every strap comes fitted with a 316L Stainless Steel Cartier-Style Buckle. These buckles are fully polished and are modelled after the OEM buckles from Cartier with its curvaceous shape and pointed tip.
