Great photo shoot,
I must learn how to that with my GF1,

I agreed with you, Ball is a good watch value for money, at the moment!
I have ceramic XV, aviator and fireman racer, all are unique, and you canNot find fake or replica on market.

By the way i like the rubber strap, any idea where i can get it in KL.?, my ceramic XV come only with SS strap.

I used GF1 as well but the macro was shot with d90 with sigma105maco lens + nissin di622

Except hydrocarbon series u need to get from AD, other series u can find any rubber strap as long as size fit... Red Axxx hv wide range... Ebxx Thai seller...

agree...one of the reason I bought my fireman night train...because there is no replica in the market and non-watch lover not very familiar with the brand... ;D

yup...I do think Ball is not popular...at least, not yet...
But I prefer to buy watch that has chemistry with me...not because of popular brand...  ;D

I agree with u.

Most of the time the watch we like are the popular ones, that why they are popular,right? so, do we choose those we like less to be unique? :)

not that I choose the one I like less just to be unique...
Just that sometimes what I like isn't the one that most of people like...
but of coz, what I like must be match with my wallet "size" to ensure I can get one...  ;)

Nice watch, why you say thermometer is not useful? msia has 4 seasons too, warm and warmer, humid and very humid  :Laughing_on_floor:

Btw, where is the sensor located? Do you have to take out the watch to measure temperature? My friend told me Tissot has to take it out otherwise our wrist will affect its reading.
I am broke but I am happy...

I guess a mechanical thermometer is not as sensitive as a digital one. body heat might not have much effect. or chances are chris is cold blooded watch owner :)

I'm not sure how accurate is the thermometer on Ball watches, but I do love the looks of the models with TMT...they look cool...  8)
Generally, I won't say mechanical thermometer is less sensitive nor less accurate compared to electronic thermometer...it just the final output that can be narrow down to few decimal places with electronic ones...but the fundamental of the mechanism is quite the same...

but in this case there is some possibility the thermometer is also receive some effect of body temperature of the wearer...depends on the location of the sensor...

Great watch. This is really attractive looking watch. I must say that its features are great such as stainless steel and titanium case and bracelet with push button deployment clasp, water resistant up to 300m, swiss automatic movement.
