I have wanted the Ball Engineer II Moon Calendar in champagne since it came out in 2022. As a tradition, I get myself a new watch on Black Friday... The first was my blue Ball Engineer Marvelight II, and last year I bought a black Hamilton Open Heart. But I have been looking up this piece every week for the last few months. It's a PIA in the first place to find this color. This past weekend, I found a deal I couldn't pass up -- unworn, original box and papers. After a battle with FedEx, I got it today and it is 100% what I wanted. I am so thrilled!! I didn't even set it before I took this picture. This is also my first triple date watch, and my favorite detail is the hand for the day. The tritium tubes never get old, either.

Dumb question here. Long time lurker. Where is the best place or any suggestions on where to purchase Ball watches other than their shop page? Any recommendations and or guidance will be appreciated

I bought my first watch on IguanaSell, and they have amazing Black Friday deals. They are in Spain but I've had a great experience with them. I found this watch on Chrono24, but went to the seller's actual store site and got it cheaper there. It's a deal when you find a watch somewhere that doesn't charge sales tax. This piece I got from Phigora in New York.
