BALL Watch Company Baselworld 2015 Highlights
BALL Watch Company had a number of new watches on display during Baselworld this year. The company continues to push forward in its use of tritium tubes (micro gas tubes) for luminescence (a BALL trademark) as well as innovation in anti-magnetisim. They also keep in touch with their watchmaking roots in their releases by updating designs from the past. We have a selection of a few highlights from BALL that touch on these elements.The Engineer II Volcano introduced at Baselworld is deceiving at first glance given it's simple design.

I believe AP fixes/replaces the clasp at service but not sure?So is the H series the model with the troubled clasp. Should I wait until a new I or J series becomes available. I am not in a huge rush. Really appreciate your thoughts.Thanks all.

Buying a SMP in Houston
I have a buddy visiting Houston from Australia. He is thinking of picking up a SMP on his visit. Any recommendations on an AD willing to make a good deal? Any second-hand recommendations?

Incoming!! Didn't think I would but...
I have always hoped of owning a Patek one day. Could not be more excited. In fact, this is the most excited I've been with getting a watch. Picked up a 5726. Absolutely love the dial symmetry. Now the wait begins ugh. Had it shipped out of state. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
