The Ballon Bleu de Cartier


The Ballon Bleu de Cartier is a member of the French fine jewelry house’s watch family which introduced in 2007 and combines the technical craft of watchmaking with a fine jewelry sensibility. The Ballon Bleu is one of Cartier’s more iconic models. Since its release in the mid-2000s, it has become a significant portion of the company’s annual sales.

The Ballon Bleu de Cartier

Floating like a balloon and as blue as the sapphire safely nestled in its side, the Ballon Bleu watch by Cartier adds a dash of elegance to male and female wrists alike. Roman numerals are guided on their path by a sapphire cabochon winding mechanism protected by an arc of precious metal. With the convex curves of the case, guilloché dial, sword-shaped hands, and polished or satin-finish links of the bracelet... the Ballon Bleu watch by Cartier floats through the world of Cartier watchmaking.
