Howdy Guys I've been checking out Ball watches and they have some really nice looking watches. In fact, I'm considering the Fireman 43. Nice and it has 3H gas tubes for nighttime visibility. Check their site for more info. www.ballwatch.comRegards Bob

That Fireman 43 is sharp! I like the Fireman Ionosphere as well.

They make some real nice stuff, I tried on the master diver a few months ago and was really impressed

Is this a Forum or just a place (excuse) to promote products!?
I will only say
The trade name was bought and revived only recently (it has nothing to do with the old Ball watch co.) Most of the parts are made in China
I agree - they look great but not worth the money that they are asking for. ( see also Bell & Ross - another new company with expensive and average timepieces).

Interesting, indeed. After a bit of browsing I noted a few vintage Ball watches on Ebay. Also noted that there may be someheartache when looking for parts, which made me put on the brakes. What else can be told about the Ball Company?
