...think it works really well in terms of accentuating the model's sporty elements and means that I use it in much more casual settings. Had hoped for a rubber strap when Cartier reissued the Pasha a few years back. Meanwhile, will have to do with homemad...

I was looking for a strap for my Pasha. Seeing what is achivable by cutting, I'll attempt it my self

Do post your results. I have so used Uncle Seiko straps for a more sporty look (and the pattern seems to match the clou's on the strap bars), but curious to see other types (c:
