 Just got this now-discontinued Ballade II, used but in very good condition.  A new addition to my current preference for smaller pieces.

Those of you who own similar models will be familiar with the butterfly-clasp bracelet, which is well made, matches the look of the watch and wraps well around a slim wrist but the stepped bezel on this watch just made me want to put a mesh on it.

Result!


A nicely-detailed and legible dial, 37mm case width and 18mm lugs.


Nicely-stepped bezel


Low profile case sits unobtrusively on the wrist.


Nothing surprising here.  Swatch-owned brand, Swatch-owned movement.
