Ball watch - accuracy under adverse conditions
« on: May 28, 2014, 10:38:38 AM »
Hi all, new user here. Just recently got attracted to the Ball brand after seeing a friend purchase a Luminox, the gas tube lighting technology captivated my interest.

Hope to meet more people with common interest here as well. My recent purchase was the Ball Engineer Hydrocarbon NEDU, as I am a novice diver so it fits my requirements perfectly.

Hopefully I'm able to post up more close up macro shots of the NEDU in the coming week after I get some free time off work. =)

Will do some macro shots this weekend, so far good experience with it and did not have to deal with AD.

I heard some people recommend to put nail varnish into the holes, to ensure the screws are in place.

Do not void your own warranty. Avoid doing anything to it if its working just as it should be!

Never tried the nail varnish trick but have heard it's effective. Of course, do use the clear colour! And I don't think doing that will void any warranty unless one ends up stripping threads or fouling the screw head.
