CUT THROUGH THE DARKNESS: MICRO GAS TUBE LUMINOSITY.​

Exploration requires focus. Exploration in darkness requires pioneering luminosity. In the darkest conditions, our micro gas tubes shine brighter than any other luminescent material used in watchmaking – delivering clear time reading. Completely self-powered, the revolutionary tubes are carefully mounted onto the dial at each hour marker, in the shapes of batons and Arabic numerals, forming one of the most iconic BALL Watch dial designs, as well as the main hour hand, the minute hand and the GMT hand. In combination with the ceramic bezel’s Super-LumiNova coating, three time zones can be easily read in total darkness.​

NOT A SECOND WASTED: PATENTED QUICK-SET PUSH BUTTONS.​

On long journeys, crossing through foreign lands and untamed waters, it’s easy to lose track of date and time. Our specially-made GMT movement module allows for three time zones to be tracked simultaneously. Simply by turning and pressing either one of the patented quick-set buttons, the GMT hand can be easily set instead of turning the main crown. The button at 8 o’clock moves the GMT hand backward, while the 10 o’clock button moves it forward. When travel, the GMT hand reveals the local time in conjunction with the bi-directional bezel whereas the main hour hand shows the home time.​

A WATCH MAKING TRINITY: MATERIAL TOUGHNESS, ULTIMATE PRECISION AND PATENTED PROTECTION.​

Blue. One of the primary colors of light. It is the color of the sea, the color of our planet Earth and now, the color of the all new Roadmaster Marine GMT. Virtually scratchproof, the ceramic insert is tough enough to stand up to the harshest conditions and most unforgiving terrains. Ceramic is also impervious to ultra-violet rays, ensuring long-lasting color. However, manufacturing colored-ceramic is no mean feat, the brighter the color, the more difficult it is to stabilize it during the sintering process, in which the material will be heated at temperature as high as 1,600 degree Celsius.

Underneath the blue halo, the titanium case crafts an all-around tool for exploration with its high-grade strength, durability, superb corrosion-resistance and a lightweight wearing experience. Combining sharp sporty line and robust construction, the 40mm case enables unencumbered movement.

At the heart of the timepiece is a chronometer certified by the Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute (COSC), which has undergone strict testing to validate its precision. Safeguarded by our patented Amortiser® anti-shock system and with water resistance to 200 meters, the Roadmaster Marine GMT is ready for adventure without hesitation.

DIFFERENT STYLES UNIFIED BY METICULOUS CRAFTSMANSHIP.​

The Roadmaster Marine GMT ceramic series is not just a celebration of intelligent technology and craftsmanship, but one of personalization as well. From the vibrant tone of red and blue to the calming earth tone of chocolate and black, the series offers ample customization in terms of color, material and strap options. Whether you prefer the flamboyant red-blue aluminum bezel or the casualness of a NATO strap, style is a choice, make yours today.
