Cartier Ballon Bleu de Cartier W69012Z4

Cartier Ballon Bleu

Since its release in 2006, the Ballon Bleu has become an integral part of Cartier’s catalogue. This reference features a 42 mm polished stainless-steel case with the model's signature rounded profile and an integrated bracelet, both of which accentuate its elegant, flowing form. The silvered guilloché dial presents bold black Roman numerals and blued-steel sword-shaped hands, complemented by a discreet date window at 3 o’clock. The sapphire crystal protects the dial front, while the fluted crown is set with a synthetic blue spinel cabochon - a hallmark of the brand. Powering the watch is the Cartier Calibre 049, an ETA-based self-winding movement a power reserve of around 42 hours. With its harmonious proportions, gracefully domed case, and balanced design, this watch exemplifies a tasteful blend of luxury and subtlety.
