Graceful in form and distinguished by its signature blue cabochon crown, the Ballon Bleu de Cartier brings an air of timeless sophistication to both men's and women's wrists. The Roman numerals arc gently around the dial, subtly offset by the bold presence of the deep blue winding crown. With its rounded, convex case, guilloché dial, blued steel sword-shaped hands, and a bracelet of polished or satin-finished links, the Ballon Bleu glides seamlessly through Cartier’s storied watchmaking tradition, a perfect balance of elegance and innovation.
The present example is offered in never-worn condition, presenting a rare opportunity for collectors to acquire a pristine timepiece from one of the most iconic collections in Cartier’s watchmaking repertoire.
