Bought my first BALL watch today. Fell in love with the Trainmaster Moonlight Special limited edition. Quite excited to have my first automatic watch. rclxm9.gif

hey guys, what category would Bell watches fall under? around Tag or Omega level?
*
i wanna say more around Tag level but really it depends on how complicated it is. there is a wide range of prices.

Hmm, i think major watch shop should have it, saw some at Watchshoppe. But it is expensive, why do you need it for? I love to wind my watches  tongue.gif

no la, sometimes you travel overseas for a week or so and i don't necessarily bring a luxury watch along with me. but i cannot afford for it to "stop moving" as it has dates and moon phase functionality. the power reserve is only 45 hours i think.

As long as you wear daily or alternate day, it shouldn't be any problem. Yes the power reserve usually more than 40 hours.

One solution though, just fully wind the watch when you put it aside and think would not be wearing for more than a day.  tongue.gif

p/s: oops, you ara a spurs fan huh, sorry for your league cup lost  cool2.gif

for a day is ok...i am going to a beach resort for a week. and will not bring my watch with me.... sad.gif

thanks for the wishes on the cup loss....tough to lose on penalties.

Just purchased a Ball Engineer Master II Diver with an all black bezel in SS bracelet last weekend. Really beautiful. Besides the changes on the bezel, which is now all black instead of black/green or orange or grey, the 3H tubes rating is now T instead of T25 on the older diver models. I checked it out on the other watch forums and they posted that T25 basically means that it has <25 Tritium and T on the dial means that that it has >65 and up to 100 Tritium on it. Some Ball watches has T100 on the dial (notably the Aviator series), which means that it has 100+ Tritium on it.

So, in other words, the new Engineer Master II Diver with all black bezel has much brighter lumes than the other Diver models. No wonder when I see it at night, it is a lot more brighter than my Ball Trainmaster Pulsemeter. smile.gif

Fyi, the more Tritium, the brighter the lume is at night. Pictures will be up soon. smile.gif

Btw, if you are planning to get an Omega, get the Aqua Terra models instead. I just bought an Automatic Omega Lady Aqua Terra in SS for my wife last month. She loved it a lot. smile.gif

My next watch purchase should be a Rolex GMT Masters II with the new ceramic dial so that my SS Rolex Datejust won't be so lonely. smile.gif

as a fellow Ball watch owner, i can't wait to see the pics of your new watch.... rclxm9.gif
