Ball has opened preorders on a new model, the Roadmaster Vanguard
The new Roadmaster Vanguard is the world’s first professional diving tool with dual time, day and date functions.
Powered by an in-house COSC dual time movement module, the certified chronometer quickly shows the time in two geographic zones. The skeleton hand indicates local time and is operated by simply pressing the quick-set buttons. The button at 8 o’clock moves the local time backward, while the 10 o’clock button moves the local time forward. With a secure screw lock, the buttons are safeguarded against unintentional manipulation. When only one time zone reading is preferred, the two hands cohesively and artfully overlap.
To further aid travelers, the dial aperture at the 6 o’clock position serves as a day-night indicator for the second time zone. White for daytime, blue for nighttime. The dial also features day and date windows. For travel across time zones, these features help keep you connected and explore without hesitation.

Re: PREORDER: Brand Direct: Ball - Roadmaster Vanguard
I'm with Boourns on this. I think it's great. There is a lot of good stuff going on here. To the point that I think it is going to be worth that price tag for a lot of people. Ever since [mention]PetrosD[/mention] posted this in the new releases thread, I've meant to look up more about the movement.......still haven't.
