[userfriendly]

Ball watches are cool and they are great for ball jokes.

Yeah, but does the lume last all night?

[TLgdeL]

Way to go Mikey!!!

That one looks great. You still getting the Magnate GMT?

Mine says hello (gratuitous lume shot)

[jimyritz]

No on the Magnate...Thanks....

Woooo hooo!!! That thing looks awesome. Looking forward to frequent pics ...




Also, if you look at Paul's pics, you'll see a reference to "T100". 100millicuries of radiation is a very rare thing in the tritium watch world (most are <25). If you haven't started your family yet, you might want to stay away. Or, at least keep your hands out of your lap; it may sterilize you.

I would assume that the Spacemaster also has a silly amount of tritium, but I didn't notice the '100' markings on it anywhere. Isn't the Spacemaster the brightest one now? Does anyone know?

There is a "T" on the dial of the Spacemaster to the left of Swiss Made...From what I undertsand the X-Lume has just under 100 mc's..

I think that double T means <25millicuries and T>25 means over 25mC

Mike, super snag brother. Of all the Ball's i've been looking at, the Spacemaster x-lume is my favorite and the one I'd get. Look forward to your long term impressions of it. Now that I really think about it, this could be one of those sleeper watches, for me at least, and could really rock the stable. Great choice.

Thanks Brad...I always thought Ball was a solid brand...but I didn't really know how solid
until I got to see one in person and put it on the wrist...

True, very true Jay for me anyway where mentally I'm 6.

I bet THE CONTINENTAL has someone to clean his Balls for him.

I don't think THE CONTINENTAL has anything, to quote himself, as pedestrian as Balls...

I was a bit worried when I posted that..

But looks like the global mod approved it..

He may not have any actual balls either. who knows? Where's that guy been, anyway?

[ezcheese]

Whatever he's doing, I'm sure it involves teabags.

DAMN I WANT A TRIESTE!!!! LET ME KNOW WHEN YOU ARE SELLIN/TRADIN...

DO IT! You will NOT be disappointed!

Ball makes some of the best built watches I've ever handled including most of the big names... Let my Trieste go and searched like hell to get another one. This one is sticking around.

The bracelets are bulletproof, but the rubber is just as nice and they work on Zulus and Natos very well.




Congrats Mike! Wait till you wake up in the middle of the night with that beast in the room..
