I see several cheaper ones... is it worth paying a premium for this version?

Any major tells on it?

The one you are looking at may be a better version with a better date while overlay, but the size is a little larger than gen and it's just way too expensive for a rep bleu. In my opinion, buy a less expensive version and use the money you save for another watch or two.

Here's a great one that's inexpensive and available right now: http://forum.replica-watch.info/vb/showthread.php/cartier-ballon-bleu-117022l I was debating going more expensive, but decided to get the 21j version--which is perfect for this watch since the gen is tuned down to 21600bph.

Here's a great review on the 21j version by Fakey: http://forum.replica-watch.info/vb/showthread.php/review-cartier-ballon-39746?t=39746&highlight=fakey+bleu

I am sure others would have different opinions, but for the blue, the difference between the 21j version and the ultimate version isn't enough to warrant the extra cost and, of course, the 21j is reliable and if it breaks it's a $30-50 to swap in a brand new movement. How can you go wrong?
