No Risk
Hi Jester,
Thanks for your reply, in fact there is no risk at all, since the piece of cufflink on the inside of the cuff,
is very tiny.
I tried to photograph it, which is not so easy.
Besides that, the cuff itself is pretty thick, mainly since it's double. French cuffs as they're called in the US.
Even with very thin cotton, the fabric is still so thick, that it is impossible for the metal part of the link,
to actually touch the watch and if it would, it would touch the leather strap, but it's really not possible.
Since ages I am wearing cufflinks daily, even with jeans and as far as now I have never seen a single
scratch, made by the link.
And believe me, I am pretty fussy about scratches.

Looking well matched!

Looks great! It is indeed an incredible advantage that Cartier has such a comprehensive product line. I am fortunate that most of my accessories do match one way or another, despite not coming from one brand's line. Looks sharp! Thanks for sharing!
This is great!

I especially love the Santo combination where all pieces are perfectly matched. One question: Did the cuff links ever scratch your watch? I love cuff links but in the early years, I decided that I do not want to run the risks of metallic cuff links scratc...

the Tortue buckle with Tortue MP and Tri-color knots are a beautiful combination. But I absolutely adore the Santos buckle with the stingray belt...thats an amazing combination. I love how you paired them with a textured gray shirt. Stingray is often an o...

Very well done, Geo! I think you've created a classic post with this. Not only because this must be the first post ever to combine Cartier belt's with it's watches, but also because of your superb photography. Looking forward to more of your posts! Martin

Now we only need to find a good pair of shoes to compliment the outfit ! I particularly like the shape of the Tortue too, and the belt does fit very well with your monopoussoir for "dressy" occasions ; for a more casual look the santos 100 with the stingr...
Love it Geo ...

I'd purchase those buckles to match my Cartier watches if I had any! You know I am not that knowledgeable about Cartier and their products (Watches nor Jewellery) but since you introduced me to the "world of Cartier" I am impressed by their designs - even...
