Ball Engineer III Marvelight (36mm)

Newly arrived today from Switzerland! I purchased this watch for my 10 year wedding anniversary, the 36mm variant is limited to 1000 pieces; The dial closely resembles my wife's eye color, the number of mine being her birth month and day, finally it was engraved (by ball) with her initials

Was very excited to see this come in a 36mm size and the timing of its release worked out perfectly. I'm quite pleased with how it looks in person, it was my first time making a pre-order purchase completely off of just renderings.

One notable difference is the top of the center links are brushed and not polished like the 40mm version

Happy Holidays!

Wow! It was fate with the timing and color for you two! Looks like a fantastic watch! A great mix of tool and elegance. Looks like a nice taper on the bracelet as well. What is the width measurement of the clasp?

I always wanted to add one to my collection.

Please let me know how the 904L steel performs when it comes to scuffs and scratches

Ill have to get back to you on the exact clasp width, it does taper nicely. The butterfly clasp has a nice seamless aesthetic but i'd probably prefer a standard clasp; possibly the one thing i'd change with this piece if I could

Congratulations!

A beauty at 36mm, although that watch would look good any size (not true for all watches).

Wow! Ive always loved ball as a company and it's rich history, however I found their watches might be on the larger side for me personally, but 36mm is the exact size I would love to see from them

to follow up I was unable to locate my calipers but using a ruler it appears to be tapered to just about 16mm at the clasp from 20mm at the lugs

I really like the finishing on those central links
