The Ball Engineer Hydrocarbon NEDU COSC DC3226A-P6C-BE 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-P6C-BE 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.
