What makes Ballon Bleu de Cartier so special?
This Cartier watch design has the perfect balance of feminine elegance and strikingly assertive lines. This balance also allows the watch to take on a very masculine appearance in its larger sizes and in the chronograph versions of these men's Cartier watches.
Besides the distinctive classic blue sapphire cabochon crown used to wind the watch and the distinctive pebble-shaped case, which is very comfortable to wear thanks to its rounded profile, the Cartier Ballon Bleu also comes with an elegant and ornate guilloche textured dial; This wave-like pattern appears on all Ballon Bleu models that do not have a mother-of-pearl dial. This detailed engraving method, which is difficult to imitate, is another distinguishing feature that makes Ballon Bleu so special.

What sizes are available?
Here are the available sizes for the Ballon Bleu Cartier watch. From smallest to largest: 28 mm, 33 mm, 36 mm, 40 mm, 42 mm and 46 mm. While most of these sizes point to a Cartier Ballon Bleu women's watch, along with a few mid-sized watches, do a little research and you'll find that there are also quite a few Cartier Ballon Bleu men's watches and Ballon Bleu chronographs, generally measuring between 44mm and 46.8mm x 47.1mm.
How much are their prices?
Arguably the most recognizable Cartier watch, the Ballon Bleu is only surpassed by the legendary Tank series, where prices can go as high as XXX at retail. The Cartier Ballon Bleu price starts at around XXX for a stainless steel model and peaks at just over XXX for some diamond-encrusted 18k white gold models when purchased from Cartier authorized dealers at the full manufacturer's suggested retail price.
On the other hand, second-hand Cartier Ballon Bleu watches will cost you a little less. You can often find Cartier Ballon Bleu watches at auctions, in pre-owned condition, with opening bids as low as XXX.
The price of a Cartier Ballon Bleu watch depends on a few things; mainly the size of the watch, the materials used in production, and the strap and dial configurations. Some of the Ballon Bleu straps come in distinctive colours, such as pale pink, to match the pink dial on certain Ballon Bleu models. While most Cartier Ballon Bleu watches have a silver dial, some of the upper segment models have a stylish gold dial.
At the more expensive end of the spectrum, you can find several models of the Cartier Ballon Bleu with diamond dials and diamond bezels, while others only have diamond bezels. Additionally,Ballon Bleu deCartier watches often use either Roman numerals or diamond hour markers on their hour markers, almost as a signature style for their dials.
What makes them tick?
When it comes to the heart of the matter, the movement or caliber that powers Cartier Ballon Bleu watches, this watch manufacturer prefers to use its own in-house movements. Some models use the Cartier Caliber 057 quartz movement, which is a HEQ movement.
Mid-range Cartier Ballon Bleu watches use either the Cartier Caliber 076 automatic movement, Caliber 049 or Caliber 430 MC manual winding movement. Cartier Ballon Bleu men's chronographs use a self-winding Cartier Caliber 8101 MC mechanical movement.
What is the secret that makes this collection so special?
Since its introduction in 2007, the Ballon Bleu de Cartier collection has held a strong segment in the luxury watch market as it is as much a fine Swiss watch as it is a piece of jewelery with charm and wide appeal. As an iconic watch from the French master jeweller, Ballon Bleu has been seen on the wrists of royalty such as Princess Kate Middleton and Hollywood's most famous names such as Johnny Depp.
Like the Cartier Tank line, which offers both watches for men and Cartier watches for women, with a style that can be modern, ornate or simply elegant, this collection has the versatility to appeal to a wide audience and enough design options, from steel to gold, to keep it relevant for the long term.
