The Ballon Bleu series manifests the characteristic Cartier elegance. Its simple curved case and signature sapphire cabochon crown combined with unique proportions and a modern engine-turned dial result in a stunningly distinctive appearance. Instead of a traditional tourbillon construction suspended between visible bridges, the Flying Tourbillon is held in place from behind, so it appears unshackled. This wonderful aesthetic effect could result in lowered shock resistance but superb micro-mechanics give this Geneva Seal hallmarked timepiece the mark of perfection.
