That is a cool addition to your collection! It looks kind of like a classic pocket watch morphed into a wrist watch. It's wicked. Congrats!! Thank you very much for sharing!!
Congratulations on your gorgeous new Cartier, Tony. The case and dial are stunning and it fits your wrist perfectly. There is something very special about 18k white gold - stealth wealth is what my AD calls it :) Wear and enjoy it in good health, brother!
Such a great watch. Every time I go to Cartier people are packed around the Santos, and I always gravitate to the Ballon. Lots of detail, different, another level of dress watch. You’re on a roll.
Wow seeing that watch in your video has really changed my mind about that model. It looks so much better on the wrist than in a flat image. And 36 is the perfect size. You scored!
The reference number for the 36mm white gold ballon bleu is w690056. It went into in production 2008/2009. I don't know when it was discontinued, but based off of its calibre, I think probably around 2015. From what I could find, it is powered by Cartier's calibre 076, which is allegedly based off ETA2671. I love the Ballon Bleu! It is one of, if not my favorite, designs of all time. I think it looks awesome on you, and I think it's a keeper for sure!!
Touche brother, I just today picked up a sweet pre-owned gold dress piece as well (Omega De Ville 38.5mm red gold, 2013 model). Always loved the Ballon Bleu, and it's always on my radar, well done!
Congrats on new timepiece you’ll love it. I have one for quite number of years in rose gold. I wanted to change straps but had trouble finding one due to the design but good luck
Love the watch Tony. I 've had my eye on the Ballon Bleu myself but there's one aesthetic of the dial that bugs me and wanted to get your thoughts. The roman numerals between 6 and 9 seem too 'crowded' and the obvious fix is to make the markers smaller or find a way to space them a bit better. It's their only model with this spacing issue in my opinion. This is the only thing holding me back from purchasing this timepiece.
Had a few beers and ended up with a new watch 🤦🏼♂️🤣 Like I said on Insta, beautiful piece dude..and it looks absolutely awesome on your wrist. Love it! 🤙🏻🤙🏻
Tony, I don't know much about watches. However, this watch looks better on you than many of the other watches I see you wearing. You look your best with a 36mm wide watch. This one is a keeper for you in my opinion. I know you just bought a different Cartier watch also but this one is by far the best on you. As far as the 40 hour reserve goes. You have a lot of watches. You switch out and wear different watches when you want to. Why do you care about long power reserve? I can see you wearing this watch in a suit or just bumming around. It will work for you. You really scored this time.
Tony do you have a Chronograph? Since you don’t have an Omega in your collection. I recommend the new white lacquer dial Speedmaster. 🤔It’s very nice watch.

@@talkingtimepieceswithtony Dude that made me laugh 🤣 No buyers remorse, good…you’re doing good!!
I love that watch Tony. I have contemplated getting this watch in a steel version 40 mm.
Thanks. You should definitely check it out. 🤙🤙
Beautiful, gorgeous and has a perfect size and shape for you. I see no problem with the strap.
Thank you. I ordered a blue alligator for it. These watches look great with colored straps. 🤙🤙

Nice watch I just got the 44mm chrono ballon bleu. Where are you getting a strap. I have to go to Cartier and wait for 8 weeks for new strap
8 weeks only? My Cartier strap took 4 months for my other Santos. I may go through Cartier. I have to look around.
Very nice Tony, congratulations! ✌🏻
Thank you. 🤙🤙
Nice watch. How do you know this is white gold versus stainless version?
I’ll add this to my Q&A.
Very nice piece what did you pay
U.S. Currency.
@@talkingtimepieceswithtony😂
Question for next time if you can say. Is Jessica/Aussie Watch OK?
Seems she shone really brightly then suddenly disappeared.
I’ll hit her up and see what’s going on. I’ll add to the Q&A
First!
🤙🤙
Yes, sir! truly stunning looking timepiece.
Youre minting money man😅
I wish. 😂😂
Tony!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
🤙🤙!!!!!!!😂
Your Cartier collection is awesome. Each piece is unique. Love that you have a solid gold Cartier looks so classy. Wear in good health!
Thank you. I appreciate it.
Why are you wearing backwards?
Huh???
@@talkingtimepieceswithtony you are wearing the watch upsidown/backwards in the video...
@@MrParadigm1981 no. I was wearing it correctly.
White gold. I love it! White gold is even sweeter when you stumble across a good deal where you know the owner!
Thanks man. I agree. 🤙🤙
Tony do you have a Chronograph? Since you don’t have an Omega in your collection. I recommend the new white lacquer dial Speedmaster. 🤔It’s very nice watch.
Hey man. I have several chronographs. Speedy is cool, but not my jam. 🤙🤙
Watch looks like is in really great condition Tony congratulations on your new piece, one MORE 🫡✊🏻👍🏼✅🍻🤙🏼💪🏼🍾
Thanks man! Yeah, it’s in great condition. 🤙🤙
