Introducing the Engineer III Endurance 1917 from Ball, Available Now at a Special Pre-Order Price
BALL?s been on a bit of a roll recently, cranking out release after release and offering each watch at a special reduced price for whoever puts down for the pre-order.

For this release, there are actually two distinct models: Classic and TMT. First, let?s take a look at the Classic.
Available in two sizes?40mm x 13.45mm and 46mm x 13.55?the Classic sports a robust stainless steel case featuring a fine mix of brushed and polished surfaces. Other specs include a screw-down crown, water resistance to 100 meters, a sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating, and anti-magnetism to 80,000A/m. Furthermore, the case features BALL?s patented Amortiser anti-shock system, which is essentially a lock for the rotor that prevents it from damaging the movement in the event of a sudden shock. The Classic, in 40mm and 46mm.
