The Cartier Ballon Bleu 42mm represents the pinnacle of modern dress watch design—instantly recognizable yet never ostentatious. The 42mm case size offers ideal proportions for men’s wrists, substantial enough for presence without overwhelming the wrist. The silver guilloché dial features hand-engraved radiating patterns that catch light throughout the day, Roman numeral hour markers provide timeless elegance, and blue sword hands add a subtle touch of color. The signature sapphire cabochon crown is Cartier’s unmistakable design signature. This is the watch that transitions seamlessly from boardroom to evening events.
This 2023 example maintains excellent condition throughout. Case and crystal show no notable wear. The silver guilloché dial remains pristine—no fading or moisture damage. Movement running accurately with smooth date transition. The black leather strap shows light wear around the clasp area from occasional use, which is normal and expected for leather, while the rest of the strap remains in excellent condition. Complete presentation set with box and papers makes this ideal for gifting or personal collection.
We verify condition and functionality before listing. This watch includes our 1-year movement warranty.
