Title: My lucky ball….
Post by: chrisyen on October 22, 2010, 10:24:12 AM: I always said ball watches is well built; worth every cent u paid for it compare with similar range other brand watches.

Design wise, of course not all its range suit my taste. Personally I love the engineer hydrocarbon series very much. I bought my first ball, an engineer hydrocarbon classic ii 5 years back…

the thick bracelet, the crown lock, the toughness, the overall design… so I really have no complaint at all. It’s a perfect daily beater. Till my love for a bigger watch that force me to let it go.
