To buy or not to buy : Cartier Ballon Bleu SS

[wintotty]

So, I've been interested in this watch for a while, and now with the new reveal of the gorgeous SS Large Ballon Bleu today, I'm getting pushed over the edge. I WANT it, but question is should I get it? I have enough watches to wear, and not sure the new watch will get the used as much as it deserve?? I'm interested in SS Medium size.
Do you have any pro or con of this watch? Any opinions or can you convince me it is a bad decision to get this gorgeous watch???

I own these watches so far, I don't think I own anything similar to Ballon bleu...

-Cartier Pasha C SS with Purple leather strap
-Cartier Tank F small size SS x YG
-J12 33 Black with dia bezel
-J12 38 White with dia marker
-Rolex SS 28
-Rolex YG 36 president
-Hermes Clipper chrono SS x Orange
-Chopard Happy Sport with pink leather


Any thoughts will be appreciated~

I LOVE the BB, but have you considered it in RG or YG? You have a lot of watches that are SS already...maybe RG for a little variety?

I LOVE the Ballon Bleu! But you do have a lot of (gorgeous) watches … are there any in your collection that you don't really use too much?

What a fabulous collection u have!!

The BB is a gorgeous watch. You can't go wrong.

Woo hoo! I think you should get it. :devil:

 

[mauimaddness]

I agree with purseinsanity I think it will be lovely to get it in the rose gold

I'm not up for the Cartier RG watch because of the color fading problems....besides I don't have $20000+ budget to purchase a watch!

I rarely use tank, clipper, rolex ss, or chopard..... I mostly use yg rolex and J12s.

Get it, you deserve it. Love the BB!

i personally would love to own this in ss, i also think you have great taste from seeing your previous pics of your jewelry and watches, go for it!

 

[luvmy3girls]

Love it..I think you need it..LOL!

I'm thinking about the ballon bleu in the smaller size in SS myself! It is a great watch. I just can't decide if I should get a more classic shaped Cartier first.

Get it! I'm contemplating (seriously) the new titanium J12 when it debuts in June.
And this is some of my watch collection:
SS Cartier roadster w/pink face
SS medium Cartier automatic ballon bleu
white plain 38mm J12
black w/diamond markers 33mm J12
ladies 2-tone rolex w/diamond markers
ss mid-size rolex w/roman numbers
rolex air king
Not to hijack your thread - but do you think I should do another J12? I'm a watch addict!

I would sell what you don't use before purchasing a new one.
