I really dig Ball watches, they are superbly made (think Omega quality), uniquely styled in great American watchmaking traditions and good value overall. MD also should mention First Flight LE uses trit vials for dial' hours marking.
If MD will sell Trainmaster Celsius at this price I'll buy it be I damned!

brainwaveI love Ball watches, too. At least MD is offering some type of real warranty on this one. But always check eBay for pricing on Ball watches, because sometimes you can find the same watch from reputable sellers, with warranty, for less.

brainwaveThere are quite a few models of Ball watches I find very attractive, this one unfortunately not being one of them. I find the dial very dull, and have no passion for the hands, particularly the ones used for the alarm.
This being said, I'm looking forward to other Ball models sold by MD!

jturzillHigher end mechanical watches can have an alarm for sure, but you are right this one does not.

jturzillYou're right, I was actually referring to the 24h dial. I'm looking a lot at some Seiko quartz chronograph watches which have an alarm located there, hence the mistake on my side.
