Estate Originals Stainless Steel Cartier Ballon Bleu Swiss-Made Wristwatch

This stainless-steel Cartier Ballon Bleu wristwatch is Swiss-made and features a 42-mm silver-coloured guilloché opaline-patterned dial with black Roman numerals, blued-steel and sword-shaped hour, minute and second hands, and a magnified date window at the three o'clock mark. The watch runs on a mechanical automatic movement, meaning that it self-winds when on the wrist (calibre 1847 MC). The fluted crown is set with a cabochon cut synthetic spinel. It has a sapphire crystal, black alligator leather strap and a steel interchangeable deployant buckle. It's also water-resistant up to 3 bar (approximately 30 metres).

Like a balloon and as blue as the cabochon safely nestled in its side, the Ballon Bleu watch by Cartier floats through the world of Cartier watchmaking. Doubly convex, its shape strikes the perfect balance between line and volume. To avoid any ruptured lines, the domed sapphire crystal winding crown is perfectly integrated into the case, with the crown cap under a metal hoop at the three o'clock mark protecting the blue bubble. This iconic watch was first introduced in 2007 and has since become one of the most popular and recognizable timepieces in the world. The Ballon Bleu’s elegant design, innovative features and exceptional craftsmanship have made it a favourite among celebrities such as Kate Middleton, Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber.
