BALL Engineer II Ohio GMT (COSC) GM1032C-S2CJ-BK.... with BALL signed strap (buckle) and bracelet.

Purchased new by me from a California AD in April, 2011. Full kit as it came from the AD, including a BALL paper bag to carry it out of the shop (your's for the asking when purchased.)

This is a stunning watch; the markers reflect light and are stunning against the black dial. The lume is impressive (as with all BALL watches.)

I took loads of photos to attest to the quality condition of this watch. Runs well within COSC standards. Bracelet has some swirlies on the middle (raised) polished links as well as minimal swirlies elsewhere.... nothing that detracts in normal wearing; the band is dirt, sweat and damage free with signs of wearing (curvature) but nothing else. The watch case is immaculant except for two minor marks on the outside of the case at the 4 o'clock position. Unseen inside, I had to take it outside into the direct sun to inspect it when I found those marks. Did not know that they existed previous to this. The solid case back is a work of art (check out the photo) with the BALL RR logo as well as the 24-time zones engraved. Nice....

I would rate this watch as TZ Near Mint to Mint based on my inspection. You won't be disappointed.

MSRP in 2011 was 2399 USD, currently 2699 USD.

PRICE REDUCTION: $1595 with both the strap and bracelet. The strap alone with buckle is about 200 from BALL.

Payment preferred is bank wire or US Postal Money Order. I have done many transactions in the last two years with everyone happy on both sides. PP will be considered; buyer adds 4% and shipping will be exclusively USPS.

I will ship USPS Priority Mail with tracking and signature confirmation. Any requests for additional shipping (insurance, other carriers, etc) will be at the buyer's request and expense.

I can be reached at elkhornss AT mac DOT com.

The watch and I are in Big Bear Lake, CA.

Thanks for the interest,

Mike

BALL Trainmaster Pulsemeter (COSC) #CM1010D-SCJ-WH; this is a chronometer with an extremely well designed bracelet and deployant. Exhibition back with highly decorated movement (Valjoux 7750, a workhorse of chrono movements.)

Originally purchased from AD in Michigan in October, 2010, I'm the second owner after the original purchaser flipped it for another watch shortly after buying it. Comes complete with COSC certificate, AD card, hang tag, one half and one full link, all boxes and protectors including the white outer sleeves.

I have cherished this watch for quite a long time; the blue hands accented against the almost pearlized dial, the highly decorated rotor and movement really set this piece apart from most BALL watches. Chrono functions work properly and resets dead center. Keeps time well within COSC standards. Some light surface scratches on the bracelet on the inside, as well as superficial swirlies and light marks in a couple of places on the outside case. You truly have to get close and personal to see them; I just did and did not know that they even existed until this last inspection.

The lume on this watch is excellent. Just want one would expect from BALL. The numbers are raised and polished, reflecting light.

I would rate this a TZ Excellent to NM for the light marks and swirlies. Truly, you have to get in bed with it to see them. Has nice wrist presence.

New this watch was MSRP'd at 2599; today it is 3199.

PRICE REDUCTION: $1595 shipped via USPS Priority Mail with signature confirmation. I prefer bank wire or USPS Money Orders; will accept PayPal and buyer remits 4% to cover the transaction.

No trades; will consider reasonable offers.

I may be contacted directly at elkhornss AT mac DOT com .

The watch and I are in Big Bear Lake, CA

Thanks for the interest,

Mike

Thanks akguppy for the thought. Looking at your watch box; looks like we have similar tastes.

You just need to add a dress BALL watch to your collection. :superman:

Also, I may also be listing either my BALL Engineer Master II Diver Worldtime or as a last resort my BALL Hydrocarbon NEDU diver.
