ball history
In 1891, a fatal train crash happened as a result of an Engineer’s watch stopping for 4 minutes. Unaware that his watch briefly stopped and then continued, the train’s journey was off schedule. As a result the train crashed with an oncoming train. Webb C. Ball was in charge of investigating Time and Watch condition along the line. He immediately implemented a new routine where every railroad worker had to have their watch inspected bi-weekly by a watchmaker. He created a new standard in which every watch had to be running within 30 seconds of each other to ensure better accuracy, as it could be the difference between life and death.
Fast forward to today, and BALL Watch is a well-respected and established watch brand. Their countless patents and technological advancements create some of the most compelling offerings on the market. BALL timepieces combine these advancements in watchmaking, with the company’s DNA of industrial function. The brand’s focus on accuracy and legibility remain a key focus. A signature of BALL watches is the use of micro tritium gas tubes which continue to glow for 25 years and not needing recharging from the sun or any light source.
