Cartier Ballon Bleu W69012Z4 42mm – Stainless Steel/Silver Guilloché Dial
Floating like a balloon and as blue as the sapphire cabochon safely nestled in its side, the Ballon Bleu de Cartier adds a dash of elegance to male wrists. Its robust 42mm steel case features a unique integrated crown guard that interrupts the guilloché dial's Roman numerals, creating a distinctively modern distortion of classic Cartier codes.
