New strap for the Solar-Beat
I finally changed the non leather strap of the Solar-Beat for a green alligator.
While I have nothing against the non leather strap, I am very pleased with the new look.

It looks more high end this way
I do not really get Cartier on this one. I would have refreshed the design a little.
The technical innovation is quite important yet they do not even write it anywhere on the caseback if I am not mistaken...
This will cut some traffic in their boutiques to change the battery though... hopefully they do not shoot themselves in the foot with the longer maintenance intervals (are you never supposed to service it btw?)
I bought specifically because of the design :)
I really love the fact that they got back to Tank Louis Cartier design, this is a Tank LC in steel, with a modern movement. I really love it, so comfortable and classy yet casual 
That's such a cool strap!
Actually, any color will look good on the white dial Tank.

Sure, I wasn't aware that it was allowed
The case and the strap were both custom ordered at Molequin in Brussels.
The strap doesn't need to be a custom order when a pin buckle is O.K..
but since mine had to fit an older deployant buckle, the strap had to be made to measure.

It is not easy to find
because the production is too low for the demand.
The Solar-Beat is a model that you need to order, that has to be ordered to make sure you get one.
The watch is not discontinued and it is not a limited edition, it is just hard to get.

I just purchased mine.
I found mine in Madrid, it took a little hunting down. Good luck
I love it George.
I’ve been admiring it on your IG for a bit, and now that I purchased mine I may need to do the same. Thank you for the inspiration.
Congratulation! Great that you got yours.
It seems that the watch is now available at most places.

Nice look
I agree with the comment. The change of strap adds sophistication to the timepiece. Thanks for sharing.
