Ball packs a ton on features on this watch and includes the world time zones on the case back to aid the world traveler. :thumbs:

Strange side note: Looks like London is spelled Lomdon, but after further inspection it is spelled correctly on the case back. Not sure what's going on but will chalk that up to a weird angle.

Congrats on both fronts Dan.

The lume on that watch is really cool. Looks like an aircraft instrument at night.

Congratulations on a cool watch. I like Ball watches but have never gotten around to buying one. I will give them another look.

The first Ball for me and this particular model just had too many features I was looking for to pass up.

Thanks, Tom! The Italian BC rubber nato is one of my all time favorites. And that's come from a strap collecting degenerate.

Thanks, Scott & Rob! Purchased the Ball without a test drive but it has disappointed.

Looking forward to the new challenges ahead.
