Hello OF members,

Selling this very pleasant Ball Official Railway standard from the late 50s early 60s based on my research. Couldn’t open the case back but this watch is certainly powered by the adjusted 21 jewel movement. The hacking movement runs accurately and sets as it should. Not serviced in my possession so please consider having a competent watchmaker service it for years of pleasure. The 10k gold filled case measures 34 mm without the crown. I think the beautiful creamy dial makes this piece pop. Base back #1107 also bears the “10k gold filled” markings.

Price includes shipping within Canada. $15 flat rate to the USA. No returns unless grossly misrepresented. Strap not included.

Faz - Top Class Buyer

We all know and love @Faz for his awesome pictures from life on the road but I wanted to also pass along that he’s an absolutely top notch buyer. Even more than that, the poor guy had to put up with a hell of a wait due to some frankly …

	Fondée en:	1891

	Pays d'origine:	United States

BALL Watch Company SA is an American watch company based in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland. It was founded in 1891 by Webb C. Ball in Cleveland, Ohio, and is linked to American railroad history.

Before the development of railroads across the United States, there was no need for a standardization of time or any real accuracy in time keeping. Each town kept its own local time, based on the position of the sun. When trains began to connect really distant cities, it got problematic and difficult to avoid collisions. Moreover, there was no policy nor standards for the watches used by the railroad employees.

On April 18, 1891, a head-on collision between two trains in Kipton, Ohio resulted in several human deaths. At the time, trains were using the same lines in opposite directions and had to cross each other at defined crossing points. That day, one of the conductors’ watches stopped for four minutes leading to the fatal collision.

In order to make train rides safer for travelers and employees of the railroads, Webb C. Ball was designated “Chief Time Inspector” and set up tests and standards for all watches used on the trains. Ball’s criteria of accuracy and reliability were so strict that they later inspired others like the Swiss Official Testing Institute (COSC).
