Why customers love Ball Watch Company?

The Ball brand is linked to the pioneers of the railroad. This brand was born following the head-on collision between two trains in Ohio. In search of a watch with a white dial, I set my sights on the Fireman Victory. I must admit that I fell in love with its silvery white dial with a clou de Paris motif, it gives a lot of depth and brightness to the watch. The little detail that I prefer? Probably the counterweight representing the brand's logo on the seconds hand! The luminance of this watch is very effective thanks to the brand's signature technology. Micro tritium tubes present on the dauphine-type hands and indexes. Being a big fan of steel bracelets, this one is of good quality and comfortable on the wrist. The dimensions of the case are 40mm in diameter and 11.6 thick. This watch has a very urban character and also a dressy side which makes it a versatile piece in my opinion. The watch is equipped with the Ball RR1103 movement (ETA 2824-2 or SELITTA SW200-1 base). On the solid case back we can see a train engraving recalling the origins of the brand. Concerning the weak points of this watch the clasp which is rather agricultural in use. I can also note the low power reserve of 38 hours which is below current standards.

I had been looking for a watch that glows at night for a long time! Here is the Ball Engineer 1917 Rainbow Edition 1000 in the world and one in France cocorico!!! The other engineers glow green at night this one is rainbow with everything that shines!! You go clubbing with that it's your wrist that shines in the dance floor seriously I turn it over at night it stops me from sleeping it is very beautiful with its blue dial I've the day in tritium so the only negative point a little heavy compared to the bracelet

I present to you my BALL Trainmaster Chronograph Pulsometer, which I acquired during the first lockdown. I was interested in the BALL brand after discovering images of the dives of the French freediver Guillaume Nery. He had a wetsuit with the BALL brand on his chest. I didn't know this brand. I discovered an American brand, technical, with a great story...problem! The brand is not marketed in France because of the tritium tubes it uses on almost all of its models. They have to be imported. I selected this chronograph with a Pulsometric scale because I was looking for a "Doctor's watch". The dial is a modern iteration of the Pulsometric scale chronographs of the 40s and 50s. This chronograph features a very well-adjusted Valjoux 7750, decorated by the BALL brand. The steel bracelet is very high quality, with its invisible double butterfly buckle. The crown is screwed down. The watch as a whole exudes quality. The polished-brushed finishes are well executed. Its 40.5mm diameter makes it easily wearable on thin wrists.

This little 39mm ball with a field watch character is actually quite dressed up. With its polished case and elegant typography, it manages to be the most chic of the rail timepieces. A fairly rare edition on the market in this black dial version, it reveals its magnificent caliber through its rear sapphire. The dial is a well-domed double dome that highlights this pretty black dial with these indexes and this truly magnificent typography. The h3 gas tubes that are Ball's specialty are supposed to shine 100 times brighter than superluminova and without the need to expose this to light beforehand. However, this little gem is more than 15 years old now, no more light comes out of the micro tubes and it is necessary to have them replaced by the parent company. What I like beyond its dimensions and all the specs that I announced, are these beautiful hands which, I don't know why, have a particular effect on me. This watch I wanted to acquire at the base as an elegant toolwatch a little goes everywhere turns out to be in fact a discreet, refined and efficient dress watch. Finally, if you do not know the history of ball and its particular history with the development of the railroad in the US, I strongly recommend you to take a look at the brand's website and you will understand why the trainmaster 60' is indeed the queen of elegant toolwatches.
