In 2025, Cartier launched four new Ballon Bleu collection pieces, two of which feature day and night display complications, and the other two adopt new color combinations, injecting more innovation while continuing classic elements.
This Cartier Ballon Bleu watch is crafted from gold, measuring 40mm in diameter and 12.4mm in thickness, and is water-resistant to approximately 30 meters. The gold crown is set with a half-moon cabochon sapphire. Both sides of the Ballon Bleu watch are cabochon, as if viewing the world from a broad perspective. The unique crystal design presents a rounded and harmonious feel, creating a distinctive optical effect.
The blue dial is decorated with a sunray pattern, which appears either deep or bright under different lighting conditions. The Roman numeral hour markers and stainless steel hands are coated with gold, echoing the case and enhancing the watch's overall cohesiveness. A date display is located at 3 o'clock, with a deliberately circular date frame that complements the cabochon crown, creating a circular aesthetic. The crown is set with a cabochon sapphire, surrounded by a metal dome, which both protects the crown and ensures the watch's overall smooth and rounded lines.
The watch uses the Cartier 1847MC in-house manufactured automatic mechanical movement, marked with "AUTOMATIC" at 6 o'clock on the dial. The 1847MC movement, launched in 2015, uses a single mainspring barrel and has a 42-hour power reserve. It features hour, minute, second, and date displays, targeting an entry-level and practical market https://www.aomwatches.is/.
