Ball Engineer Master II Skindiver II Ref. DM3108A-S1CJ-BK​

BALL Watch Company previously took up the bold challenge of reviving a resonant part of its watchmaking heritage in the form of the Engineer Master II Skindiver. Following the collective success of this model as soon as it launched, the Ball Watch Company now once again meets the expectations of all lovers of vintage diver's watches with this new additional Engineer Master II Skindiver II - Bracelet Ref. DM3108A-S1CJ-BK. Just like its predecessor, the Chronometer grade Engineer Master II Skindiver II takes its inspiration directly from the first "BALL Skindiver" timepiece conceived in 1962 in response to the increasing popularity of underwater diving in the United States, the original homeland of BALL watches.

Deep Set Tritium Tubes​

The black dial is freed from all superfluous features to make the essential information immediately accessible during a dive. The very structure of the dial has been re-designed by incorporating a circular flange on which the minute scale is marked out. The hour markers on the dial are fitted with eight of BALL’s Signature nano-tubes of self-illuminating H3 gas in a baton shape and four smaller scale tubes on the minute track for easy orientation in the dark. Similarly, additional sets of slim nano-tubes are applied to the syringe style handsets, beautifully contrasted with a striking orange seconds hand for an attractive pop of color on the dial.​

Swiss Made + Chronometer + Ceramic Bezel + Tritium​

This timepiece combines a resolutely vintage 1960s design with the codes and technology of contemporary watchmaking. The development of this new model led to a stainless steel case of more than adequate dimensions, with a 43mm diameter and a height of 14mm. The water-resistance of the Engineer Master II Skindiver II Ref. DM3108A-S1CJ-BK, an essential feature of any diver's watch, carries an effective water-resistance rating of 500 meters accompanied by an additional helium release valve at the left side of the case, ready for saturation diving expeditions. The use of a timepiece at such depths underneath the surface made it necessary to fit the case with a screw-in crown and case-back for a water tight seal. As per Ball's timepiece, the 60s diver has impeccable finishings with intricate satin-brush at the top to the sides, separated with high-polished bevel lines for the added contrast. A Ball patented Mu-metal shield for unsurpassed anti-magnetic of up to 80,000A/m. and shock resistant to 5000Gs.

Today, more than ever, BALL Watch is continuing its journey and asserting its role as a key protagonist in the exploration of modern time and the evolution of watchmaking history.​
