Strap Measurement Guide

There are two ways to find out the lug width of your watch.

  1. Firstly, you can Google "<watch brand and model> lug width" and see if there is an answer from the brand's website, or some other websites.
  2. Alternatively, you can simply take a ruler and measure the lug width directly on your watch.

Lug widths are typically in whole numbers, and while the most common lug widths are between 18-22mm, they can go down to 8mm or up to 32mm even. Our ready stock straps are available in 12mm,14mm,16mm, 18mm, 19mm, 20mm, 21mm, 22mm, 24mm and 26mm. If you need other lug widths, you can have it custom made.

You will then need to purchase a strap with the same lug width. For example, if your watch has a lug width of 20mm, you will need a 20mm strap to fit your watch.

FAQ

What is the size of of my Cartier Ballon Bleu?

There are 2 ways to find the case size of your Cartier Ballon Bleu watch:

1. Use a digital caliper or ruler to measure across the case (excluding the enclosed sapphire crown):

How to change the Cartier Ballon Bleu watch strap?

Because of the Cartier Ballon Bleu's unique recessed lug design, most models use standard spring bars that require a spring bar tool to safely remove and install.

To remove the strap:

  1. Insert the forked end of your spring bar tool into the small gap between the leather strap and the metal lug on the back of the watch.
  2. Catch the ridge of the spring bar and gently compress it inward (away from the lug) while pushing the strap slightly downward to pop it free from the case.

To install the new strap:

  1. Insert one end of the spring bar into the hole on the inside of the watch lug.
  2. Use the spring bar tool to compress the opposite end of the spring bar. Carefully slide the tailored end of the strap into the recessed case and release the tool, allowing the spring bar to snap into the second hole.
  3. Give the strap a light tug in different directions to ensure both ends of the spring bar are securely locked into the watch case.
What if I realised I got the wrong size after ordering?

If you receive your strap and find that the size is incorrect, don't worry! You can exchange them for the correct size as long as they are in brand new unworn condition. (Shipping fees applies)
