Introduced in 2007, the Ballon Bleu de Cartier offered a modern interpretation of the Maison’s classic design language. Named for its signature blue sapphire cabochon crown, which appears to float within a protective arch, the model embodies both innovation and refinement.
Its rounded case marked a departure from Cartier’s traditionally angular forms, such as the Tank and Santos, lending the watch a distinctive profile and exceptional comfort on the wrist.
This yellow gold example comes with it's Cartier presentation box and additional accessories.
