ALL ABOUT BALL WATCHES

The Ball Watch timepieces are designed with stainless steel to ensure durability and reliability.

The company essentially caters to the changing demands of its customers. Nevertheless, it hardly compromises the industrial functionality and always tries to uphold the original guidelines and rules laid down by the founder. 

At present, the brand has six collections of luxurious timepieces with simple and aesthetic overtones. Trainmaster, Roadmaster, Fireman, Engineer Hydrocarbon, Engineer Master II and Engineer Master III are some of their masterpieces.

The history and origin of the Ball Watch is intriguing as the company has played a pivotal role in railroad history. 

In the early 19th century America, people used to measure time according to the position of the sun and hardly felt the necessity of timekeeping accurately. However, the Kipton disaster of 1891 paved the way towards the emergence of Ball watches in America. The tragic incident occurred when a train in Elyria collided with a fast mail train in Kipton, Ohio. This subsequently prompted the Lake shore officials to appoint Webb C. Ball as the Chief Time Inspector of the railroad tracks when Ball already became the first manufacturer of watches in Ohio. 

Initially, Webb C. Ball began to serve the Ball Watch company as a mere watchmaker. Ball worked diligently for the expansion of various technologies over the years. He set various guidelines for the production of supreme timepieces such as magnetic resistance, reliability of time, isochronism, dial arrangements and power reservation. He has been a chief source of inspiration to his later generation due to his groundbreaking success in the field.

It is worth mentioning that the primary aim of designing the watches was to withstand extreme conditions of railroad. With gradual progress in technology, they began to manufacture modern watches. The materials of Ball Watch company range from high shock-resistance to complete visibility in the dark, depending upon the demands of the customers.  

Mr. Ball has manufactured more than 2000 Ball-certified watches for the professionals such as conductors, engineers and railroad personnel. Besides, this great man never failed to keep records of the timepieces to ensure performance accuracy.

But with time, their timepieces look different from the previous ones to suit the requirements of the customers. However, it never compromises the industrial functionality and strives to retain the original guidelines laid down by the founder.
