Nice! :)

Now I'm curious, what would be a solid give away that our watch is a rep?

the give away for me is the bracelet finish between the links, if you did not pay attention check that out you'll be (negatively) surprised...

But right now I am in the market for a gen leather strap and clasp.

BTW if any of you guys walk by a shop selling Cartier in the USA, could you ask them how much is a brown gator replacement strap for the mid-size ballon bleu?
here the prices are crazy +or- 300€ or 445$ only for the strap... :(

god, dont let pecman see this picture!

Love this thread. :D

First, I can't get over how tiny that movement is! So cute :D

I also had a concern about the finish between the links, but that can be fixed.

To answer Beau's question, I posted a few links for you to go through on your thread.

Hallo,
I bought the cartier bleu de ballon for my dad but the bracelet is to tight or to whide.
Is it possible to buy single parts of the bracelet?

Regards

Nope, mine is the mid-size. I'm a chick so the 42mm would look ridiculous on my wrist.

Anyway we can catch a pic of it on your wrist? I'm researching a cartier rep for the wife but trying to see what that size looks like. I love large watches on women but most dont feel like carrying around a hamburger on their wrist. I was looking for a 29mm but want to see what this size looks like in the Ballon Bleu.

My first choice was trying to search out a Pasha w/ the white rubber and ETA but can't find that at all.
