It’s often said that the Ballon Bleu is one of the few watches which can suit both the wrist of a lady and a man which is testament to its high quality and elegant style. Cartier use soft curves to manufacture a watch which appears to rest weightlessly on the wrist of the person wearing it. Pre owned Carter Ballon Bleu watches are popular because they are relatively easy to buy although there are several things you need to watch out for when doing so.

The three sizes of Cartier Ballon Bleu are small, medium and large. Usually the small version is meant for women while the larger versions are meant for both sexes depending on the style the woman wants to go for. This range of sizes makes pre owned Cartier Ballon Bleu watches an attractive option for many people. Only the large models, however, have Cartier Caliber 049 movement which may or may not be significant depending on what you want from a watch.
Small Cartier Ballon Bleu watches are 28.5mm while the larger ones are 42mm. This is a significant size difference and is noticeable on the wrist. Often a larger watch will create a more imposing aura while a smaller one is more subtle.
One thing to be aware is that if you buy a pre owned steel Cartier Ballon Bleu then you’ll only be able to find metal straps. These watches cannot be bought with a leather strap. The only Ballon Bleu model which can be bought with a level strap are ones made from gold. You should also keep in mind that all Cartier watches come with a guarantee and it’s important to find out information about this from the person you’re buying from.
Some of the other features of pre owned Cartier Ballon Bleu watches include Roman numerals on the watch face, an automatic winding movement and a water resistance rating of 30m. You can tell from this shallow depth that the watch is not manufactured to be a sports watch.
The Cartier Ballon Bleu is truly a work of horological art and is one of the most attractive watches available. Buying used or pre owned Ballon Bleu watches is often a straightforward process as there are a number available – especially if you search on auction websites such as eBay.
