Ball are giving customers the choice to decide between the Limited Edition Engineer III Bronze and the Engineer III Silver, with the Bronze edition featuring a black dial whilst the Silver features a blue or a black dial, depending on your choice. The dial itself gives off a strong and sturdy aura, with strikingly sharp hour, minute and second hands as well as bold aviation inspired hour markers working their way around the face. The day and date feature to the right of the watch makes it easy to read with a plain white background for extra legibility.

Although this watch looks very cool, it’s not all about the looks and in-fact with Ball, they put the emphasis onto their technology that flies high above the rest. The Ball Watch Company have integrated amazing Spring-Lock technology to the automatic movement, which reduces shock impact by 66% and if that’s not good enough these watches also have Balls’ specially designed Amortiser anti-shock system. It’s clear to see that Ball have invested their efforts into ensuring the safety of the pilots up in the air and make their landing as safe as possible. They have also included their anti-magnetic shield (which sounds pretty cool) but it actually helps the automatic caliber stabilise and ensures that the watches movement isn’t affected during bumpy rides. Overall, this watch is resistant to shocks up to 5,000G, to magnetic fields up to 80,000A/m and to water-pressure up to 100m. Quite a strong watch, you’ll admit.

We could go on all day with the amount of features that the Engineer III has to offer – however, the one thing that really stands out for me is the micro gas tubes that are hidden away in the dial. It is a fantastic feature that allows for reading in darker lighting conditions as it automatically glows without you having to do anything. This feature can be found in all of Balls’ watches and is a pretty neat addition if you ask me – see here for night shots.

  1. I think the pre-order offers tremendous “bang for your buck” and I have pre-ordered the Bronze Star. The deal ends on 12/31 though. Should also be noted that these use Ball’s RR1102 movement which is based of the Swiss ETA 2836-2.

  2. Nice looking watch. Love the bronze version as well. And the logo at 6 compliments the dial nicely. Good job 👍🏻

  3. Sorry for the correction, but Ball Watch Company is singular. As in ‘The crowd roars.’ (You need not print)
