Description
Cartier Ballon Bleu Ref. W69012Z4 – 42mm Automatic Stainless Steel
The Cartier Ballon Bleu de Cartier Ref. W69012Z4, Model 3001, is one of the maison’s most recognizable modern designs, combining elegant proportions with the distinctive rounded architecture that defines the Ballon Bleu collection.
This larger stainless steel example features a silvered guilloché dial with black Roman numerals, blued-steel sword-shaped hands, and a date display positioned at 3 o’clock. A sapphire crystal protects the dial while Cartier’s signature recessed fluted crown is decorated with a blue synthetic spinel cabochon.
The watch is powered by a mechanical automatic movement and paired with its stainless steel Cartier bracelet. The bracelet currently fits a wrist measuring up to approximately 7.5 inches.
The Ballon Bleu’s combination of an elegant Roman numeral dial, substantial case proportions, and integrated steel bracelet makes it equally suitable as an everyday luxury watch or a more formal piece.
This is a pre-owned watch. Please review all available photographs carefully for the exact cosmetic condition and any signs consistent with previous use.
The original Cartier box and papers are not included. The watch will be delivered in a beautiful premium presentation watch box.
