I don't have a favorite brand of watch, but if I did it would definitely be Ball. Someone here needs to buy one of those. That's a nice price.

This is less of a deal than it is a request for information. Ashford has this Ball Engineer Master II GMT as one of their weekly specials.

List $3199, normally $1599, on sale for $1195 but available for even less from watchgooroo on eBay. It’s titanium. I’m interested but my search skills are failing me because I’m unable to find an image that definitively shows the tritium tube colors on this particular variant. Can anyone help?

Similar model in this video. But can't say the colors would be the same, but I would assume so.
Check the :37 mark.

I emailed Ashford's customer service to inquire about the tube color. The exchange is below:

ME: Can you please tell me the colors of the tritium tubes on this watch:

ASHFORD: Thank you for contacting Ashford. The watch is Blue & Orange, with black case and rubber band (not orange band), as listed.

ME: What color are the tritium tubes imbedded in the dial, hands and bezel in the dark?

ASHFORD: The tritium tubes embedded in the dial are white (surrounded in silver), hands are the same, and bezel is black.

I didn't bother to ask again.

This seems like a deal, but looks like specs are all messed up. According to Vulcain website it's 42x10 mm, and definitely no alarm function. But the dials are nice...

At 1149 thats an unusually good price, I think. Here are a couple of actual pictures

black dial (this is a different GMT model but it still approaches the look of the dial I think)

This black dial one is actually a mechanical alarm 'Cricket' model. Should cost much more than 3 handler.

That 1 from the 11 seems to have migrated a bit

ToM probably thought it would sell better with more symmetry.

I get that, but what to do about the marker above 9? I or 0?

This is a nice video of the watch. It certainly looks like a true moonphase to me.

Certified Watch Store has the Ball Engineer Hydrocarbon Deepquest on bracelet for $1450. MSRP was about $4200.

https://www.certifiedwatchstore.com/wat ... sc-bk.html

This is a heck of a deal on an uber-deep diver. Don’t confuse this bad boy with other versions of the Engineer Hydrocarbon! Monoblock titanium case with a titanium/SS bracelet, COSC, 3000 meter rated (10,000 ft) with a helium relief valve, anti-magnetic, shockproof to 7500 G’s, three color tritium tubes (blue, orange, yellow) and some sort of hardcoat on the case and bracelet that makes it extremely scratch resistant. The AR coated domed sapphire crystal is almost 1/4” thick.

I piked one up at a pawnshop a few months ago and love it! I’ve been wearing it on and off since then it barely has a mark on it. It’s surprisingly light and built like a tank. It’s been discontinued, but it was a heck of a deal even at full MSRP.

I hope someone here did, those were a steal. I logged off early and missed out. Not sure I would have bought but would have liked to have had the chance.

You may not have made a bunch on resale but you wouldn’t have lost any money if it was flipped.
