chris112 0 Posted August 25, 2016 Hello, I require a new strap for my Cartier Santos 100 38mm watch i have seen this genuine one on ebay: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Cartier-Santos-20mm-black-satin-watch-strap-100-genuine-/131917417958?hash=item1eb6e40de6:g:1WYAAOSw9NdXvGEZ but it doesnt come with the metal parts, dont know what they're called, but id meed them to attach the strap to the face and to connect the bands together if i dont go for this one, what is a realistic price to pay for a replica soft black leather strap for my santos100 38mm, which is a replica - it doesnt have to be leather i just want one that closely resembles the genuine santos100 strap thank you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greg_r 83 Posted August 25, 2016 I expect that strap will eventually go for well over £150, they're damned expensive new. Some of our strapmakers will be able to make you a Santos strap, but they're hard to find 'off the shelf' and won't be cheap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chris112 0 Posted August 26, 2016 i see, sow approximately what would you expect to pay for a reploica soft black leather strap for a santos100 38mm? also, on that ebay gen santos strap i listed, it is only the strap nothing else sow what are the metal pieces that i need, besides the lug pins?

greg_r 83 Posted August 26, 2016 All you need is the deployant clasp, which if you have the watch, you should have already. You'll need to ask the dealers about sourcing the strap - I have no idea what's available at present Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gavmeister 1 Posted August 26, 2016 The Cartier Santos 100 has screws as opposed to pins....a fairly decent looking strap here: http://www.ebay.com....I5siVsvfqaS-HlQ ...and you get the screws thrown in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chris112 0 Posted August 26, 2016 (edited) thanks my Santos is a fairly cheap $150 Santos100 38mm from Toro a few years ago (but rarely worn), so didnt expect top quality the wrist band was never comfortable as it was so stiff and rigid and snapped off the other day also the clasp is not comfortable or nice looking before i buy a new soft leather band, what do you honestly think about the quality of this rep, see pics worth investing in a new band?

chris112 0 Posted August 26, 2016 If i win that first ebay gen strap, cam i use the screws/bars/clasp from my rep strap and fit them to the gen strap? or is it unlikely my rep screws/bars/clasp would be the same size? and interchangeable? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
