Ball Watches have long been synonymous with innovation, precision, and creativity, with a legacy built on providing the most accurate timepieces for those working under extreme conditions. Since the railroad industry played a pivotal role in shaping modern America, Ball’s commitment to timekeeping excellence was solidified in 1883 when Webster Clay Ball, the first jeweller to use time signals, brought accurate time to Cleveland. Ball eventually became the chief inspector for the railroads in 1891, continuing his mission to create the world’s most precise mechanical watches. Today, Ball watches uphold this tradition, combining outstanding engineering with the highest technical standards to create timepieces designed for both adventure and refinement.

Introducing the Ball Engineer III Invigorating Serpent NM9026C-S47-MAL, a stunning example of precision and craftsmanship. Encased in durable 904L stainless steel, this watch features a 40mm case diameter and a thickness of 13.15mm, offering a perfect balance of elegance and resilience. The anti-reflective sapphire crystal provides a clear view of the unique dial, which shines with green and a yellow micro gas tubes abd the Chinese character for the word 'Snake'. The robust 904L stainless steel bracelet with a folding buckle adds sophistication, making it a versatile accessory for both formal and casual occasions.

Powered by the automatic caliber BALL RR1103, this limited edition 2025 Year of the Snake timepiece ensures exceptional accuracy.
