I am interested in getting a Engineer Master II Chronometer Lt Ed. I would like to get it with the black dial on steel as I have never really been a leather fan. However, I haven't completely ruled out the strap. Does anyone happen to know the MSRP on a steel braclet and leather strap?

Anyhow, I would like to hear the good, bad and the ugly about your Balls.

Hi n9zez,

I'm not sure u'll be able to find many Ball owners here. Suggest u drop by to the following with dedicated Ball forums:

1) www.watchtalkworld.com
2) http://74.50.21.220/~watch18/forums/index.php
3) Official Ball forum at http://forums.watchuseek.com/index.php

You'll be able to get more feedbacks from Ball owners in these places.

i don't know the price(s), but these guys sure do...they are tapped into the Ball Watch Factory, and specialize in the watch...you can do business with them in confidence, I've been to their facility:

The folks at www.watchuseek.com's Ball Watch forum are great. They will be very helpful and there is a rep from the factory as well. Great watches by the way. Coolest lume on the planet and very well built. I love my Albino Gator!

Best of luck.

David

I was going to pull the trigger this weekend, but opted not to just yet. I'll be getting the Master II Diver

n9zez · 13 July 2008, 03:48 PM

Travis,

I take it you have checked them out in person?

If so, thoughts??

I have yet to personally see one!

cbsmohai · 13 July 2008, 04:07 PM

Actually, yes a store that carries Breitling, Omega and Tag just became an AD.

I was very pleased with the visible attention to detail and absolutely stunning lume. The dealer didn't mind at all if I cupped my hand around each watch.

They are extremely rugged looking watches and the sweep second hand is visibly smooth and precise. I actually really like the internal rotating bezel on the Master II Diver.

As far as the company itself is concerned, I like the direction they're moving in. Really cool ideas for automatic watches (i.e. the doctors watch that can be used to count a patients pulse)
