The Ball Engineer Hydrocarbon NEDU COSC DC3226A-P4C-BK watch delivers excellent features such as high durability, precision and great workmanship. This watch has a classic "diver" design and is a great tool not only in tougher conditions, but also for everyday wear. This model catches the eye at first glance with its massive patented crown protection.
The case of the Ball DC3226A-P4C-BK is made of Grade 5 Titanium (which is more resistant to scratches), the strap is rubber. Inside the case works a Swiss mechanical automatic movement Ball RR1402-C (the basis is ETA Valjoux 7750), which works at a frequency of 28800 semi-frequencies per hour and has COSC certification. As a result, it can carry the "Chronometer" designation and meets the most stringent requirements for running accuracy. This movement has a chronograph function, i.e. a stopwatch. The large central seconds hand serves as a stopwatch, the sub-dial at 12 o'clock houses the minute counter, while the sub-dial at 6 o'clock serves as the hour counter. Unlike the vast majority of stopwatches with stopwatches, these stopwatches can also be used underwater, demonstrating Ball's considerable technological maturity. At the traditional 3 position, we then find the date and day of the week display .
We can also count on an impact resistance of 7500 Gs, which corresponds to dropping the watch from up to 1.5 meters without damaging the movement. In addition to the case design, this is ensured by the patented Amortiser® shock protection system (shock protection for the automatic winding rotor, with the option of fixing the rotor on some models) and the SpringLOCK® flywheel shock protection system. For timekeeping, a unidirectional rotatable kermai diving lunette is used, which is equipped with SuperLuminova luminescence on its indices and numerals. This ensures that it can be used even in the dark.
The perfectly clear dial is protected by a sapphire crystal that is maximally scratch-resistant. An anti-reflective coating provides excellent legibility even in direct sunlight. Readability in the dark is ensured by the H3 tritium luminescent tubes on the hands and indexes. These ensure reliable luminosity regardless of previous illumination, unlike the classic luminescent coating. The water resistance of this watch is 600m and is supported by a screw-down crown, a special patented crown guard and a patented helium valve integrated directly into the crown. Thanks to this, it can easily cope with deep diving to about 60-70 meters, for example.

Ball Dive Watches Engineer Hydrocarbon Engineer Hydrocarbon Sports Watches Swiss Watch Titanium Inconvenient Mechanical
In 1891, two trains collided at Kipton Station in Ohio, USA, claiming 8 lives. The watch of one of the train drivers, who unknowingly stopped for 4 minutes, was to blame. Jeweler and railway inspector Webster Clay Ball was tasked with setting new standards for the accuracy and control of track staff watches. The Swiss Accuracy Society (known as COSC) was even inspired by its strict requirements to create its own accuracy parameters for watches, known as the Chronometer.
The original Ball's jewelry store in Cleveland gradually grew into the Ball Watch Company, which began producing reliable and high-quality watches. Of course, precision and quality also adorn today's production, which is produced in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, under the prestigious Swiss Made label. A large part of it has a COSC chronometer certification. We can also add our own patented technologies, such as the SpringLOCK® and Amortiser® impact systems, the helium valve directly in the crown, the patented crown protection, or the A-PROOF® antimagnetic system. The highlight of all this is the Ball Chronometer Manufacture Caliber 7309 in-house movement with a power reserve of 80 hours and COSC certification. You can also rely on H3 tritium luminescence on all Ball watches, which ensures 100% readability in the dark, regardless of previous lighting!
Today's Ball watches, which have exclusively mechanical movements, therefore offer models suitable not only for railway tracks, but also for rougher use, or even underwater. Thanks to the top processing, however, they will make you a lot of joy even during everyday wear.
