Ballon Bleu

The Cartier Ballon Bleu de Cartier reference WSBB0049 is a timeless and elegant interpretation of one of the Maison’s most emblematic designs. Offered here as a certified pre-owned luxury watch in new condition, this timepiece is delivered as a full set with its original box and papers.

Crafted entirely in stainless steel, the 42 mm case offers a confident yet perfectly balanced presence on the wrist. The Ballon Bleu collection is instantly recognisable thanks to its rounded case and integrated crown guard, which protects the winding crown set with Cartier’s signature blue synthetic cabochon. The polished steel finish enhances the watch’s refined and contemporary character, making it suitable for both formal and everyday wear.

The dial features a classic silvered guilloché finish, adding depth and subtle texture while remaining true to Cartier’s timeless aesthetic. Iconic black Roman numerals, elegantly distorted to follow the curvature of the case, ensure immediate recognisability and excellent legibility. Blued steel sword-shaped hands provide a refined contrast against the silver dial, while a date display at 3 o’clock adds practical daily functionality. The dial is protected by a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal.

Powering this Ballon Bleu is the Cartier automatic calibre 1847 MC, a mechanical movement developed for reliability, efficiency, and modern wearability. It offers a power reserve of approximately 40 hours, delivering smooth operation and dependable performance for everyday use.

Presented as a pre-owned luxury watch in new condition and accompanied by its full set, this Cartier Ballon Bleu 42 Automatic represents a highly desirable creation from Cartier. An ideal choice for collectors and enthusiasts seeking an iconic stainless steel timepiece with a refined silver dial and enduring Cartier elegance.
