Description

Cartier Ladies Rubber Watch Strap Reference 16-16/100-60

Overview

Original Cartier rubber watch strap designed for ladies’ timepieces, featuring integrated steel links for a refined aesthetic. This strap is marked with the official Cartier reference 16-16/100-60, confirming its authenticity as a factory-issued component. The strap combines high-quality black rubber with polished steel links, a signature Cartier design element that balances durability with elegance. The short piece measures approximately 60 mm, while the long piece measures approximately 100 mm, accommodating a wide range of wrist sizes.

Cartier introduced rubber straps with steel accents in the late 20th century, primarily for sportier models like the Pasha and Santos collections. This strap style was engineered to provide a secure, comfortable fit while maintaining the brand’s luxury appeal. The strap is marked Cartier | MSMB, indicating its origin and material specification. Condition is graded Excellent in our Condition Grading Scale, with no visible signs of wear despite its pre-owned status.

This strap is sold without a buckle, as Cartier often paired these straps with deployant clasps or tang buckles specific to the watch model. The strap’s 16 mm width at the lugs ensures compatibility with Cartier ladies’ watches from the 1990s to early 2000s, particularly those with 16 mm lug spacing. The taper to 8 mm at the steel link section provides a sleek transition to the clasp, maintaining proportional balance on smaller wrist sizes.

Specifications

Official Cartier reference 16-16/100-60. Lug width at the watch end is approximately 16 mm, tapering to approximately 8 mm at the steel link section before widening again to 16 mm at the buckle end. The strap is crafted from black rubber with integrated polished steel links, providing both flexibility and structural integrity. Total length consists of a short piece measuring approximately 60 mm and a long piece measuring approximately 100 mm, offering adjustability for wrists between roughly 14 cm and 18 cm in circumference.

The strap is marked Cartier | MSMB on the underside near the lug end, confirming its authenticity. The rubber exhibits a matte finish, while the steel links feature a high-polish surface, creating a deliberate contrast. The strap’s profile is slightly curved to conform to the wrist’s natural shape, a design choice consistent with Cartier’s ergonomic approach to strap engineering during this period.
