'My Small Obsessions' on FB
 
There has been much speculation about the size of Kate's Ballon Bleu de Cartier watch. Thanks to 'My Small Obsessions' on FB and follower Ayvee Elliot we think they have nailed it down! It is the 33mm. Ms. Elliot says the small (28mm), medium (36mm) and large (41mm) all have a straight edge on their links. The 33mm has a tapered link.
