The Ball Engineer Hydrocarbon Original is a beautiful and crazy engineered dive watch.

Here is a look at the Ball Engineer Hydrocarbon Orginal in 40mm. This watch has a lot going on, including a unique crown protector, tritium lume sandwiched on the dial and bezel insert, and lots of shock protection built into the watch and the COSC movement. Also a lot of high polish.

I have this model of watch. Great quality and very comfortable to wear. night time luminescence is off the scale. I like it’s understated looks. It’s a great watch.

[@watchreport]

Nice! Thank you for sharing.

[@stevem863]

Glad you did a review on Ball. They do have some great models and I think they are under appreciated. I also believe their over engineering can be a turnoff. I’m waiting for my Trainmaster lume to fade, been about 6 years, still shines bright.

Great “honest sounding” review thanks!

[@arthurgifford1476]

I literally just bought this same watch today (black dial 40mm) today so crazy coincidence you made this . Hopefully will have mine come in the mail in about a week or so! Can’t wait

Nice! Congrats!

I have one and its surprisingly wearable as an everyday watch. I think its just about subtle enough design wise to not be too much. It is also tough. I got knocked off my bike by a car wearing this and it hit the tarmac. Small dent to the bezel (barely noticeable) and one clasp pin bent and that was all. Remains in COSC spec timing wise.

I saw they made a 43mm case version of this which got me really intrigued.

[@lloydwellington5271]

I have an older chronograph version of this. The tritium tubes are dust now. I always think the height to diameter ratio is a tad off on ball watches.

[@whodeycinbengals]

Too much going on with this one, although I do applaud the originality with the tritium, unusual crown guards and other style choices. The GMT you’re waiting on looks much more appealing to me and my tastes.

[@watchreport]

Yep it’s definitely not for everyone, as it is a more forward design, but still a cool piece. Hopefully the GMT outlier will be in for review in a month or two. 👍

Crown guards remind me of an ugly spoiler on the trunk of a Civic. I really like T25 Tritium on a couple watches I own. Good luck on getting the GMT.

[@paradoxstudios6639]

The flip-over crown guard concerns me.

[@9thARRU]

Too bad about the wobbly bezel, that's my pet peeve. Would have bought it otherwise as it's a great looking watch.

[@AyuK-jm1qo]

Why can the bezel be turned?

[@watchreport]

Sorry but not sure what you are asking here? The bezel turns because it’s dive watch and the bezel is marked to be able to time things.

[@AyuK-jm1qo]

@@watchreport Im just wondering why there is the option to turn that big circle that shows the minutes

[@kyleleungrulez]

Everything is great and the clasp ruins it all.
