I see 2 choices. Black titanium or gray. (Not silver)
Are there any common “rules” about matching a metall...

Hey all,

I'm sharing my experience on ordering my first custom strap from Delugs in case it would be helpful to anyone.

I'm a simple guy and usually the off the shelf straps are good enough for me since I don't care about contrast stitching colors and other minuscule features. However, the options were limited for a Cartier Tank XL.

The lug to lug dimension on this watch is rather short so my former strap did not fit as well as I wanted to. It was sitting on the 3rd hole from the end of…

Anyone know if Delugs is still planning to produce leather straps with its D-locks for the Santos de Cartier? I know this was discussed at one point after the relaunch of the CTS rubber straps, but haven't heard anything since.

Wondering if anyone here has swapped out their GS heritage with a strap and if they have photos. Curious how it’d look and what others more experienced than I would recommend.

I haven't actually tried this yet, but it seems like a brilliant idea. Does anyone have any experience of it?

I couldn't find any previous mention of it here on the Delugs forum, which seems odd as it's very innovative. Having said that, for all I know other manufacturers may have been something similar for years. Still, patent-pending (for Fitwell, not Delugs) apparently.

Now, if Delugs would just offer less of a taper on their straps, I'd buy a Crazy Horse strap with the Fitwell...
