I've wanted a Ball watch ever since I learned about the brand and I finally got one, the Engineer Master II DLC.  I chose this model because I like the fact that there are lots of tritium tubes on the dial and that it has DLC coating, which is something I do not have in my collection.  The fact that it's one of the lower priced Balls doesn't hurt either.

This watch is really a high quality piece and I'm very happy with it.  Here are a few quick pics:

I have never seen this model. I really like tube numbers. I have seen other Balls that are somewhat like this and they are very good looking. Your watch is awesome!

Fantastic look to a great watch. I also have wanted a Ball and recently got the Diver w/ green accents. It also has a lot of tubes (53 I think) and is a great looker in the dark. Nice acquisition.....well done

Like Mike I haven't seen this model. Very stealthy and plenty of tubes. What is the tube count on this bad boy. Ball gives you a great watch every time. Congrats and enjoy!Thumbsup3.gif

I believe the tube count is 48. 

Here's a slightly better night time shot:

Great looking watch!

I went into my local AD about a month ago, and tried this one on. I loved the dial, didn't care as much for the strap. I found it rather stiff.

I've since purchaed a Spacemaster, but now I'm thinking of adding this to my collection, and simply replacing the strap.

GREAT lume shot! Very nice dial.

I think the website might be incorrect.  I've counted several times and arrived at 48 tubes each time.  Of course, it's possible that I counted wrong so I can't say it is 48 for sure.  Let's just say it's around 50 tubes.subtlelaugh.gif
