[Official] HWZ Ball Watch Thread

I think ball come out with many new watches, quite interesting but the price not competitive enough as u can get better brand thou, but recently saw they have 904L steel series of watches.. TISSOT, Longines, ORIS have leap many design another competitor is Tudor with it many watches riding the Rolex waves, even Seiko is coming in many beautiful design

Actually they make watch with a solid lum. Not many can product such standard. But not sure why it is just not popular

After like 6-7 years the lum died liao. My GMT Magnate doesn't shine like my spring drive tuna. Bring back to change think was quoted 20 bucks per tube.

Wow! Like that 50 tubes = $1000. I thought Switzerland change the whole face plate?

Also super ex. I recall some like Space master got 50 tubes. Actually this is a super well made watch but no idea why it is just not popular. Wearing this kind of catch the stewardess attention especially if you are on a night flight. ! Fancy watch at night

Hi,

I have a couple of Ball watches (men) and I would how much would it costs to service them.

I am going to HK next week and am thinking of having them serviced there.

Question is, would be more reasonable in terms of the costs there as compared to in Spore?

Or anyone can let me know how much does the Spore office charge for servicing.

Thank you.

hmmmm from their website it suggest that they may not have official service center. Do you mean to visit those private ? My lume is not working anymore, its like for 10+ years already, also due for servicing hehe

Just sent my ball watch in for repair & servicing. Replacing gas tube already cost $450.
General servicing cost $500 for a chronometer watch... otherwise its $400

It's quite steep to me considering ball watch is probably a mid tier or entry level watch brand.
