Post #134336318 added 01-17-2020 11:18 AM by minj in Deal Talk
I would argue that Ball has better fit and finish than Oris from my experience but I ended up selling both brands though. Also, placing Tag above Omega in any comparison is kind of silly. Ball is...

Webster Clay Ball was in charge of keeping time on American railroads. Hence the "official railroad standard" moniker. It's a historically important brand. Read up.

Sure - but you can also find used Tags on the gray market for $300-400.. they don’t hold their value like Rolex, Omega, Panerai, etc. Tags are okay pieces but I personally find them lacking. I’d...

If Maradona can wear 2 Rolexes, why cant we?

Taking it personal? He criticized just about everything I wrote in my first post, so excuse me if I did take it a bit personal - it was. And no, he's not "100% correct." Please, Tag is a luxury /...

Listen, Fossil can make a $1,000 watch, it doesn’t make them a luxury brand. I’m only ignoring your “point” because it’s irrelevant. Again, take a look at any reputable watch community and you’ll see...

Holy moly has this gotten out of hand. This all started because I said I find Ball to have better fit and finish than Oris and that Tag is not as well known as Omega. Both points I still stick by....

Just wear it in good health. Unless you plan on selling it, it doesn’t matter and the scratches are just reminders of your life. Last time I had one of my watches serviced, they mentioned that that...

I think tots is taking this far too personal, but Minj is 100% correct. Tag Is lower tier regarding luxury watches. Keep in mind most people’s tiers would include the likes of Patek & vacheron. ...

Stainless steel is kinda the go to regardless. For higher end watches, there’s nothing wrong with some scratches. It shows character imo as long as it isn’t too bad. Lots of pieces can be buffed...

Get off your high horse. No one said or insinuate that Tag isn't luxury but rather it is a beginner luxury. And doubtful bud. No one is gatekeeping but to say Tag is high end is ridiculous. You're...

Ball makes one of my favorite watches... however don't like any of these, bummer!
Post #134349173 added 01-17-2020 9:18 PM by minj in Deal Talk
Well I meant even in recognization especially with all the new James Bond movies wearing and advertising Omega. Last time I remember Tag advertising was for Jeremy Lin like 5 years ago.

In 1891 there was a collision between Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Railway trains at Kipton, Ohio (just outside Cleveland) which occurred because an engineer's watch had stopped. The railroad...

If you're referring to the Boldr Venture, it actually looks like a decent watch for the price. Titanium case at 38mm diameter and 14mm thickness. Even has sapphire and AR coating. Movement is rated...

Hahahaha... okay, yeah, Tag Heuer is "lower tier." Nobody that knows anything about watches believes that. Most of the world couldn't stomach paying more than $150 for a non-smart watch, and most...

I don't think you understand what Swiss made actually means when it comes to watches. Pretty much anyone with a genuine interest in horology has at least heard of Ball and knows it has its history in...

Seriously... when you spend $1K or more on a watch, you hope a large percentage of people recognize it as an "expensive watch." Everyone knows Rolex, and many know Tag Heuer, Omega is fairly well...

Ball is the last name of the founder, who started the company in 1891. He’s long dead, but I don’t think shooting him for naming his company after his surname is an appropriate recourse.

Why?
Post #134347064 added 01-17-2020 7:24 PM by dchang0 in Deal Talk
You're correct, but you misunderstand me. The US and Swiss rail industries developed roughly in parallel with each other (mid-1800s). The Swiss watch industry was already best in the world by then,...

Ha, touché... Thanks, and I wasn't even looking for an argument, either. Just a fairly general comment about it being interesting that Swiss-made Ball's roots were in Cleveland, OH (which still...

Yup the venture! Misquote with the ‘adventure’. I actually ordered one with some parachute straps, so I’m excited to have a cheap beater. I wear a watch everyday and I’m not enjoying using my...

Great deal

As a Tag owner, I do consider my tag to be on the lower tier of luxury watches. My Breitling and Carl F Bucherer are substantially nicer, as is my Ball (both past and present). Also, I’d disagree...

They are named with railway terms as those are the roots of the company, in the US Rail industry and timekeeping for that industry. It has nothing to do with and is not referencing Swiss railway...

Yea I’ve handled Oris pieces and found them to be overpriced as well. Bunch of hype. This Ball watch at this price is nice.

I bought this watch off this deal. I like it. Thanks OP.
