Details & Specifications
Description:
The Ball Watch Engineer II GMT II reference GM1032C is a robust and technically accomplished automatic sports watch from the American-Swiss manufacture, built to the exacting standards that have defined Ball Watch since 1891. The 40mm brushed and polished stainless steel case houses one of the most distinctive GMT complications available: a simplified second time zone display subtly integrated into the chapter ring, revealed through a red window at 9 o’clock showing Arabic numerals for instant readability.
When not required, the second time zone indicator blends seamlessly into the dial layout. The dial is marked “GMT II – Automatic – Anti-Magnetic – 100M/330FT”, confirming the watch’s practical credentials.
Ball Watch’s signature tritium micro gas tubes — 28 in total, positioned across the hour, minute and second indicators as well as the inner bezel — provide self-powered luminescence that glows 100 times brighter than conventional luminous paint and requires no external light source to charge. The black dial features luminescent baton hour markers, Arabic numerals at 6 and 12 o’clock, a central GMT hand, and a date window at 3 o’clock framed in red. Powered by the Ball Calibre RR1201 automatic movement (based on ETA 2893-2), COSC-certified as a Swiss chronometer. Anti-magnetic and shock-resistant construction completes the specification. Presented on a brushed and polished stainless steel bracelet with a folding clasp. Swiss Made.
