The Cartier Ballon de Bleu Flying Tourbillon Mens Watch W6920001 is the perfect watch for a man that wants a fine timepiece that doesn’t look like every other watch on a wrist.  This timepiece has a unique look and design sure to impress anyone who wears it.

The bracelet of this timepiece is brown alligator, with a dual adjustment folding clasp.  The case is round, made with 18K pink gold and transparent scratch resistant sapphire on the back. The crown is circular grained set with a sapphire.   The dial is analog, with Roman numeral markings and a scratch resistant sapphire crystal covering, the most expensive and durable covering available.   This watch shows the hour, minute and has a tourbillon that makes this watch face truly intricate and special.  It is water resistant up to 30 meters, which means it’s suitable for wear in the rain, washing the car or even light, recreational swimming.

Pros

  • 18K Pink Gold
  • Tourbillon
  • Scratch Resistant Sapphire Crystal
  • Sapphire in Crown
  • Alligator Bracelet
  • Water Resistant
The Cartier Ballon de Bleu Flying Tourbillon Men’s Watch W6920001 is made with the highest quality materials and a real attention to detail that can’t be beat.  The alligator bracelet insures a comfortable wear, while the unique watch face and tourbillon display make for an eye-catching look.  The sapphire ads a great element of interest and plays nicely off the classic Cartier blue hands.  This watch is perfect for anyone that wants someone to look twice at their timepiece.
Cons
  • Price $96,500
  • Not Vegetarian/Vegan Friendly
  • Readability
This watch is clearly expensive, but the product you’re getting is well worth the money spent to get it.  The alligator strap means that this watch is not vegan or vegetarian friendly, and the watch face is a little difficult to read.  The blue hands help make the time stand out, but all the intricacies of this timepiece make for a complicated, some might say muddled, dial.
With all of that said, I would still recommend the  Cartier Ballon de Bleu Flying Tourbillon Men’s Watch W6920001.  It’s a true watch lovers watch, it wearable in any situation and to any occasion and is a luxury watch that comes with the backing of a well-known, trusted name like Cartier.  This watch should be worn by a man that doesn’t want a watch that looks like every one else’s, a watch that has elements of the classic about it, but with a fresh, modern feel.
