Ball Engineer Hydrocarbon Magnate GMT Watch
As much as I love GMT complications, I have to say that the name for this one is just silly. “Ball Engineer Hydrocarbon Magnate GMT.” Four proper names plus GMT suffix?That said, the watch itself is pretty nice looking. I’m not fond of the Rolex-style cyclops over the date, though some quite like them [Ed. note. You’ll see some hands-on images I took with watch here. I believe that the magnifier crystal is actually reverse mounted (inside the crystal) so as not to stick out of the crystal]. The fixed bezel is less useful than a rotating one, but on the other hand it’s filled with luminescent paint for a cool look in the dark. The textured and detailed dial has good balance and attains the not-too-busy look a good dress watch.

Overall a good looking watch, with the bulked-up look Ball produces.

It is a simple truth that we all want to be cool, and to be cool we emulate those people or ideas in our life that bring us closest to the notion of social, economic, intellectual, and performance succ
