Notes

Founded in 1847 in Paris, Cartier has long been regarded as the "jeweller of kings and king of jewellers," known for its refined aesthetic and enduring design language. The Ballon Bleu de Cartier, introduced in 2007, marked a departure from the house's historically rectilinear watch designs, its distinctive rounded case and sapphire-cabochon crown creating a softer, more sculptural silhouette. This two-tone Ref. 3284 pairs that signature form with the versatility of a steel and gold bracelet, reflecting the collection's broad appeal and its status as one of Cartier's most recognisable contemporary designs.
