Strap Guide: Cartier Santos de Cartier W2SA0016

The Cartier Santos W2SA0016 is a standout reference with its signature two-tone finish, combining stainless steel with 18k yellow gold. This watch blends modern Cartier design with vintage cues — and thanks to the QuickSwitch system, it offers impressive strap-swapping versatility.

To make the most of your W2SA0016, choosing a strap that complements both the materials and proportions of the case is key.


Lug Width & QuickSwitch Fit

The W2SA0016 uses a 19mm lug width, and like other modern Santos models, it’s equipped with Cartier’s QuickSwitch mechanism. That means it’s essential to choose straps designed specifically for this case shape — curved ends and precision click-in fitment ensure both comfort and style.

All of our straps are custom-built to match this reference perfectly.


Rubber Straps for W2SA0016

A high-quality rubber strap adds a contemporary, everyday feel to this two-tone model. Our grey FKM rubber strap is a particularly popular option for the W2SA0016. The neutral tone contrasts nicely with the yellow gold, creating a sleek and understated look that's ideal for casual wear.

Made from durable, waterproof FKM rubber, it offers excellent flexibility and long-lasting performance, with integrated curved ends for a seamless connection to the case.


Leather Straps for W2SA0016

For a more traditional and elevated appearance, our brown leather strap is a favorite among W2SA0016 owners. The warm leather tone complements the yellow gold bezel, giving the watch a dressier edge without feeling too formal.

Each strap is handcrafted from premium leather and shaped to fit the Santos case with precision. Compatible with the original Cartier clasp or a classic pin buckle, it's an easy way to refine your watch for business or evening wear.
