A watch for flight crew and air traffic professionals, it incorporates, for the first time in any timepiece, H3micro gas tubes in the chassis of the bezel. This bezel carries a 24-hour graduation, and marks out a third time-zone in addition to its standard and second time-zone GMT functions. In the darkness of an aircraft cockpit or air traffic control, this bezel comes alive with a luminosity 100 times more effective than conventional luminous paint found in other aviation watches, yet is self-powered for up to 25 years.

The Engineer Hydrocarbon Aero GMT also carries on with BALL Watch’s signature toughness and can absorb impact of up to 7,500Gs, and carries an antimagnetic resistance of 4,800 A/m. The 42mm machined stainless steel case is equipped with the BALL patented crown-protection system to ensure a sealed-system.

The aviator-inspired face has hour indexes and main hands carrying yellow H3gas tubes, with the 3, 6 and 9 o’clock markings receiving double gas tubes, with a pair of ultra-distinctive orange gas tubes holding court at the 12 o’clock index. The second time-zone GMT hand tops this all off with green gas tubes, in tribute to BALL’s corporate colours.

This model either comes complete with a metal bracelet fitted with the BALL exclusive patented triple folding buckle or is alternatively fitted to personal taste with a rubber strap and standard buckle. Both configurations allow the watch to be fitted over one’s aviation apparel, and complement the out-sized bezel in giving the pilot excellent usability in form and in function.
