This is an amazing watch and I have never seen it on sale like this. Just sold mine to fund another purchase, but wanted to share with others. This thing gives a Rolex Datejust a run for it's money, and I say that as a Rolex owner and fan. Use code INSIDER for 10% off. $796.50 Delivered. Just sold mine used for a good deal more than that.
Been tempted by these quote a few times over the years however two things really bother me : no taper in the bracelet and the butterfly clasp. If it wasn't for those I likely would have had one a long time ago.
Just got mine yesterday. The bracelet does taper from 20mm at the lugs down to 18mm at the clasp. The whole thing is very nice.
As far as the clasp, I don't like the double deployant bracelet clasps in theory, but I now have 3 Balls with this style of clasp, and I was able to adjust all of them to fit very comfortably. It does come with two half-links to aid in adjusting the fit and position of the clasp.

Thanks for the update. The similar styled ball I checked out sometime ago had no tapper and reviews I've read since mentioned the same.
Got mine in gray. Gorgeous watch. Is the 12 supposed to have the same green luminous as other hours or different color? Mine is green and trying to verify what it's supposed to be. TIA

i think it's supposed to be different because the 12 hour mark is most important (or something like that lol). mine's green while the rest is blue.
Just ordered mine with a silver dial on Ebay from Shopworn.com. I bid 755.00 and got one. In the beginning of this post I had the opportunity to by the black version, but I have 2 Ball watches with black dials already and talked myself out of it.. It was time to mix it up.
