Cartier Dumont Straps - Tjakra Brown

Cartier Dumont Straps - Tjakra Brown

Description : Introducing the new addition to the Cartier Santos-Dumont collection. Tjakra leather watch strap designed exclusively for Santos Dumont feature Quick-switch system using the same metal adapters and comes with a quick release spring bar to provide a flush fit for the Cartier Santos-Dumont without any lug overhang. Unlike the Santos line-up, this collection was made to only fit straps, not bracelets. With its slim case and classy look, it was a very dressy watch that worked well on a range of straps.

This great leather has to be part of every strapaholics collection. Tjakra is a very unique leather, especially in terms of aging. The pebble grain pattern on the leather seals the porous surface of the leather as well as polishes it, this makes Tjakra a very resilient and scratch resistant leather. It will acquire a patina of use with time, but it will be a much more gradual process and the effect will be less dramatic than other veg-tans.

While regular straps could be used, it does not create an integrated fit that flows nicely with the case, which is not ideal.  After research & development now we are able to make integrated straps for the three sizes of Santos-Dumont on the market - Small, Large and Extra Large.

Material : Vegetable tanned leather from Italian Tannery founded in 1973 that has authentic leather look, unique two-tone colour, feel and smell with pebbled grain surface.

Thickness : 3.5mm on lug area taper down to 2mm on holes area

Stitching : Each stitching hole is punched by antique awl and hand stitched with white wax yarn. (you can choose any other color combination/stitching to make a truly custom strap).

Edges : The leather edge is first sealed with edge paint for humidity resistance, and then repeatedly layered with iron-heated waxed coating for a smooth finish.

How it's made : Over 10 hours of labor and precision were involved in the making of this strap for a luxe look and feel. An extraordinary watch strap to lust after.

Warranty : This watch strap is warranted to be free from defects in materials and workmanship for one year from the original date of purchase when used under normal conditions and for its intended purpose.
