When one thinks about tool watches, the most prominent would probably be diverās or chronographs watches. In the wide world of watches, there lies an understated category of tool watch that strongly emphasises the value of high precision timekeeping - Railroad watches. Railroad watches hold notable horological significance, especially American watchmaking history. It was on April 19, 1891 when an unfortunate incident of a train collision in Kipton, or dubbed the āGreat Kipton Train Disasterā that occurred due to a misjudge of time.
This sparked the advent of a system for all railroad workers to wear watches strictly approved by watchmakers to forbid variations of more than 30 seconds to ensure utmost safety and precision in American railroad operations. These watches were produced by none other than the Ball watch company, founded by Mr Webster C. Ball. Today, the Ball Watch Company is based in La Chaux-de-Fonds in Switzerland, manufacturing accurate and functional timepieces that faithfully upholds the founding spirit of the brand.āØ
