Matte Black Alligator Strap for Cartier Tank Basculante – Perfectly Crafted by Hoa Sa

The Cartier Tank Basculante is one of Cartier’s most fascinating creations, celebrated for its ingenious reversible case and timeless rectangular design. To complement such a unique watch, the strap must not only fit seamlessly but also highlight the elegance of the Basculante. At Hoa Sa, our artisans have studied every detail to create the Matte Black Alligator Strap for Cartier Tank Basculante—a strap crafted to perfection.

Throughout its history, the Cartier Tank Basculante has appeared in several variations:

• Vintage Basculante (1930s–1960s): Small-sized models, typically with a 16mm–17mm lug width, designed for slender wrists.

• Re-editions (1990s): Stainless steel and gold models, sometimes in limited editions, most often with an 18mm lug width.

• XL Versions (2000s onwards): Larger case sizes to suit modern preferences, usually requiring a 20mm lug width.

These dimensions show how important it is to choose the right strap to match your version of the Tank Basculante.

The Elegance of Matte Black Alligator

The Matte Black Alligator Strap is crafted with understated sophistication in mind. The matte finish softens reflections, while the natural alligator grain creates depth and individuality.
