Couldn't wait to get home and get this baby on...  Thanks to Marc at IW for hooking me up on this one (and the next one, and the next one, and the...)  :D

This is one well made watch.  Not huge at 42mm without the crowns, but wears 'large' due to the inner bezel.  A nice hunk of steel, but not too heavy.  All in all, am very happy with this one - and it is gonna be on the wrist for a while y'all, so hope you don't get bored with the pics.  Speaking of, here's a couple of very q and extremely d ones...















Don't take this the wrong way, but everyone - show us your Balls!  :shock:

Very awsome Steve.  Great pics.  The green bezel was a very good choice...very nice.  You'll like that tritium lume.  Just a consistent brightness...all night long.  Yep....I need TWO balls.....watches ;)

Thanks for posting the pics.

Stevo ...that is one of the best watches a guy can own ....Ball fit and finish with diver depth , antimagnetic and shock resistant too ...... a watch a guy could take to the depths as well as on top of a mountain !!!

Welcome to the Ball club Steve. As a Ball holder myself, I can tell you the fit and finish on the Balls is exceptional given the cost. They really are extremely well put together pieces and could be priced much higher imho.

I love the 3T Green too. Great looking Ball.!! Enjoy it!!

I usually try to refrain from complementing another man's Ball...

Have to make an exception here.

That'sa Verry Nice Ball !

That is one beauty of a watch.  I have long admired the Ball line of watches and will have to pull the trigger on one at some point.  Hope you enjoy yours for a long time to come.

Ok Steve...now you've gone and done it.  I've got the orange accent Master II Diver on the way.  I was gonna wait for a bit, but your pics got me.  I went orange....something to do with Florida Gators :-)  Here's a preview pic, sent by the seller....should be here mid next week.  Thanks for the help buddy.  He even removed a couple links for me, so it may fit out of the box....that Markus is GREAT!  Highly recommended.
