Case & Material: The cart1er Ballon embodies a harmonious blend of elegance and engineering, presented in a perfectly rounded 42 mm stainless-steel case that feels smooth and fluid to the touch. Its distinctive convex profile and softly domed sapphire crystal create a continuous curve that sets it apart from traditional watch shapes. A polished finish catches and reflects light gracefully, while the integrated crown guard—an ingenious arch protecting the fluted crown set with a blue synthetic spinel cabochon—adds both visual intrigue and functional security. Water-resistant to 30 meters, the case is designed to withstand daily wear while maintaining its sophisticated presence.

Dial & Display: The silvered guilloché dial showcases bold Roman numerals that radiate outward, following the curvature of the case to enhance depth and readability. Blued steel sword-shaped hands glide across a subtle sunray texture, providing crisp contrast and timeless elegance. A discreet date aperture at 3 o’clock (available on select versions) integrates seamlessly, while the sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating ensures clear legibility in all lighting conditions.

Movement: Inside, a high-precision automatic mechanical movement delivers dependable performance with a power reserve of approximately 40 hours. Finely finished bridges and a bidirectional winding rotor reflect traditional Swiss watchmaking excellence, ensuring consistent accuracy and durability. For enthusiasts, the transparent caseback (available on certain references) offers a captivating view of the intricate mechanics at work.

Bracelet: The polished stainless-steel bracelet, composed of gently curved links, flows naturally around the wrist for exceptional comfort. Each link is carefully beveled and brushed to create a subtle interplay of textures, while the hidden folding clasp secures the watch elegantly and securely. For added versatility, the Ballon can also be paired with high-quality alligator-leather straps, allowing a change of mood from sporty refinement to formal elegance.

Features: Rounded stainless-steel case with integrated crown guard, silvered guilloché dial, automatic mechanical movement with approximately 40-hour power reserve, blued steel hands, sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating, and water resistance to 30 meters.
