That will be great if you show the evidence or proof, otherwise the Roli kaki will be  :Mad:

hmm.. not too sure, but sad to say, Ball QC are not good....

1. i bought my ball watch, i didnt really check properly, nor i never expect this happen, guess wat, when i reach home use light to do checking, i found DUST inside the watch !

2. my bro just got a watch recently, and just not too long, there is something dropped out

i've heard of Omega watch bezel drop off before, but Rolex wise i've not heard any bad thing about the watch, i'm not a fan of Rolex and i dun like how it looks, but QC from Rolex seems to be the top :)

Sorry to hear that, and the bad experience you have, well, in general it is not only happen to Ball, other brands also face similar issue. And would you believe that even Tudor watch also have missing "Tudor" word on the dial  :Laughing_on_floor:

I always believe shit happens, thats what a warranty is for.
Look at the amount of watches these big brands produce each year, add in human labor and even at 99.9% QC pass rate still a lot can go wrong.

well, thats really depend on luck, either a great piece or a piece of lemon !  :Laughing_on_floor:

i've sold this lovely watch, may thinking to get another ball in future, the lume that shine in dark are always most interesting in Ball watch ! especially reading the time in the middle of night "look mah, still telling time !"
