Ballon Bleu de Cartier Watch

ballonbleu.jpgballonbleu2.jpg

This is one of the most stand out watch designs from Cartier in a very long time. I first noticed it in their ads when it launched this year but did not fall in love with it until I saw my friend Patsy at lunch sporting it like a rock star. The Ballon Bleu is the embodiment of the modern woman; with a large face that rivals that of traditional men's watches, the Ballon is for the woman who is not afraid to show her strength and kick some ass when she has to (just like Patsy, no one messes with her!).

It comes in three sizes in 18k white or pink gold, the case is set with round-cut diamonds and has 18k pink or white gold fluted crown set with a blue sapphire cabochon. The dial is silvered opaline, guilloche (curved like a balloon, thus the name) and lacquered with roman numerals and sword-shaped blue steel hands. It is also water resistant to 30 meters/100 feet. Retail is $37,900 for the large size with diamonds, I prefer the medium for myself as I am petite but if you are of average height, the large size is totally the bomb! Forget the small size cuz the point of this watch is bad ass and how can you look the part with a tiny watch on your wrist? Call Nicole at Cartier for further details. 972-726-7670

i agree with you on large watches! i have a beautiful white armani watch with a face that's at least 1.5", i get complements on it all the time, especially from girls who are amazed how well a female can pull it off.
