Cartier Santos - Quick Release

Which strap fits your Santos

These straps are made for the current Santos de Cartier, with references beginning WSSA and the QuickSwitch system. The fitting that locks into the case is built into the strap, so it clicks in by hand like the original. Medium (for example WSSA0029) takes 18 mm at the case, Large (for example WSSA0018) 21 mm. The two sizes are not interchangeable.

Lengths are 115/75, 120/80 (the Cartier standard) or 125/85 mm for the Cartier deployant clasp, or 120/120 mm for a butterfly clasp. You keep wearing your original Cartier clasp.

A Santos 100 or Santos-Dumont attaches differently: see the straps for the Santos 100 and the Santos-Dumont, or the comparison of Santos models.

Leathers and details

Choose from eleven leathers: shiny, matte and large grain alligator, lizard, stingray, ostrich leg, French goat and four calf leathers (Satinlys, Granite, Sweet and fully vegetable-tanned). The lining is Zermatt leather from Tanneries Haas or goat leather. Every strap is cut, edge-painted and saddle-stitched by hand with waxed linen thread from Japan, in the thread colour you choose.

Deciding between finishes? Read matte or shiny alligator, large grain or classic alligator and goat leather.
