The straps you see on my Tank are not Cartier straps, custom from Etsy leather strap makers.

Best to find one that has pictures of Cartier Tank if you are making for that model. The distance between the spring bar hole and case is very thin. Have faced problems at times because there's no good way to stuff the strap into the case. This is also why companies like Delugs deliberately create a line just for the Tank, besides finding buckles that look like the original (though I personally don't care about this last point).
Thanks for sharing, particularly on the experience!
Yea, had some trouble to find a decent after market/3rd party strap for Tank.

For a budget of 1.5-2k-ish, any chrono watch that fits? Or a dress watch?

Already have a speedmaster and sub, and its a gift so unlikely to go too much beyond said budget.
Dress watch…
Rado Coupole Classic
Hamilton Jazzmaster
Junghans Max bill

Chrono…
Tissot XL chrono NBA
Steinhart ocean 1 vintage chrono


For iphone user
Apple hermes watch
