Webb C. Ball was born in Fredericktown, Ohio on October 6, 1847. In the early years, Mr. Ball was recognized as having an interest in accurate time. When Standard Time was adopted in 1883, Mr. Ball was the rst Cleveland jeweler to use the time signals sent from the Naval Observatory in Washington D.C., bringing accurate time to Cleveland. For many years, as people walked past his store, they would pull out their watches and set the time. The phrase, “BALL’S TIME”, came to mean the absolute correct time all over Northern Ohio. Webb C. Ball was instrumental in establishing watch standards and the inspection system that required all watches and clocks used on the railroads to be checked by competent watchmakers. It is important to recognize and applaud Webb C. Ball for inventing the rst successful system to be accepted on a broad scale. It was his system that set the standards for the railroads; it was his system that helped establish accuracy and uniformity in timekeeping. It was his system that resulted in railroad time and railroad watches being recognized as STANDARD, whenever accuracy in time was required. Webster Clay Ball, founder of BALL Watch Company Brand Spirit Freedom represents what humans live for: Free will and the chance to pursue their dreams. The American Railroads brought freedom to the country, the opportunity to travel and explore the new frontiers. The powerful locomotives sparked the spirit of adventure in the American people, while the men of the railroads were the heroes of the machine age. Then BALL Watch Company proudly served the men of the railroads, just as we support the world-class explorers of today. ENGLISH6 7 Illumination: It is the self-powered micro gas tube (H

) that gives the watch excellent legibility even in the absolute darkness and under adverse conditions. This light source on all BALL watches does not require batteries or re-exposure, and lasts for up to 25 years. However, the brightness of H

micro gas lights will deteriorate over the years, but can be restored by replacing with new dial. For most of the models of the Engineer Hydrocarbon series, the markings on the bezel are lled with luminous paint that emits the light to which it has been exposed during the day. Water-resistant: The water resistance of BALL watches ranges from 30m/100ft to 3,000m/9,850ft, depending on the model chosen. The water resistance of a timepiece will be impaired if the crown is not properly screwed-in. The patented crown protection system of the Engineer Hydrocarbon models ensures the crown returns to its proper position. Performance At BALL Watch Company, all watches are made to live up to our motto: Since 1891, accuracy under adverse conditions Case: The case material used in our collections ranges from superior quality, high- grade stainless steel, titanium, gold or metal coated with Diamond-Like Carbon. The automatic watches of the Engineer Hydrocarbon, Engineer Master II and Engineer II series are specially equipped with an antimagnetic soft iron inner jacket. Crystal: The crystal is made of anti-glare sapphire. Shock-resistant: All BALL watches are constructed to withstand impact test, according to the norm ISO 1413, which is carried out on a machine to simulate the eect of a free fall onto a hard wooden oor from a height of one meter. The Engineer Hydrocarbon series undergoes a more rigorous 7,500Gs impact test, to ensure its impeccable shock resistance. Movement: BALL has worked with top Swiss movement manufacturers to build our precise and dependable movements under the most rigorous conditions. BALL watches are then adjusted and modied to BALL Standard. (carefully) (carefully) ENGLISH8 9 The Engineer Hydrocarbon, Engineer Master II, and Engineer II watches are equipped with superb antimagnetic cases constructed with corrosion- resistant ferric stainless steel materials. Furthermore, the inner workings of the watch are protected by a soft iron inner jacket consisting of a sub-dial, a ring surrounding the movement and a double-bottom. This special alloy, reinforced by the shape of the case, prevents magnetic elds from penetrating as far as the movement and having an adverse eect on its accuracy. What does the term “antimagnetic” actually mean? The existing standard is dened as follows: If a mechanical watch does not stop when exposed to a magnetic eld of 4,800 A/m and subsequently does not deviate by more than 30 seconds per day, it can be called “antimagnetic.” The Engineer Hydrocarbon series certainly surpasses this standard with a protection up to 12,000 A/m while some of the BALL watches go up to a protection of 80,000A/m. Sectional view of an anti-magnetic BALL watch case Magnetism The Greeks rst observed the phenomenon of magnetism around 600 B.C. The natural magnet Fe

, a black ferrous oxide, was discovered in the province of Magnesia in Turkey. Magnetic elds produced by natural magnets are generally too weak to disturb the accuracy of a mechanical watch. The same is not true, however, of man-made magnetic elds. So where are we at risk to enter magnetic elds in daily life? Near televisions, stereo systems and radios in our living room. In the countless small electric motors used throughout our households. In the doors of cars, refrigerators or cabinets. In the telephone or computer monitor on your oce desk. And in locomotives. Even brief contact with these items is enough to magnetize a mechanical watch. ENGLISH10 11 The H

Swiss technology captures tritium safely in a very stable form, as a pure gas sealed in a hollow body of mineral glass. Its exterior walls are coated with a luminescent material, which gives o cold light when activated by electrons emitted by the tritium. Light production is the same as in a TV tube, when the electrons of the cathode ray beam hit the screen. Please note that brightness of the H

gas lights will gradually decline over time, but can be restored by replacing with new dial. Diagram of gas tube attachment to hands and dial Gas Tube Gas Tube Swiss Night Reading Technology How to read time from watches in dark environments has been a topic of much research in the watch industry. Applying luminous paints to dial and hands - activated rst by radium, then by tritium - has been standard practice since the First World War but did not really satisfy the manufacturers. After a quarter-century in research and development work, BALL Watch Company is proud to present an innovative Swiss laser technology that is considered the best alternative available today. It is the self-powered micro gas tube known as

) that gives the watch its excellent dark reading capability in any adverse conditions. They provide superior night reading capability that is 100 times brighter than the current tritium-based luminous paints. H

gas tubes do not require batteries nor to be recharged by an outside light source, or the use of a press-button, and glow continuously for up to 25 years. You can read o time from the watch quickly and safely in brightest daylight or deepest night without adapting your eyes to the ambient light. ENGLISH12 13

By locking the rotor of the automatic movement, the Amortiser

anti-shock system reduces the risk of damages during high-impact activities. When the Amortiser

is locked in the “ON” position, the rotor cannot spin, which protects the movement in case of shock. In this setting, the watch operates like a manually-wound watch. When the Amortiser

is unlocked in the “OFF” position, the rotor spins freely and can wind the automatic movement. The Amortiser

device, patented and exclusive to BALL Watch, secures the movement against extreme shocks. This feat of micromechanics is characterized by a ring of protection, both protecting magnetically and enveloping the movement to absorb shocks in combination with a locking mechanism for the automatic rotor. On the caseback, the form of an airplane propeller (DC2036, DC3036) or a submarine (PM2096B) operates the lock that secures the oscillating mass of the watch movement for the wearer. These ingenious systems protect the mechanism not only against lateral impact but also vertical impact.

The intuitive movement required to activate the mechanism consists of making the external control slide along the case.

• To trigger the chronograph, move the slide bar clockwise [S1]. The slide bar then automatically returns to its original position [S0]. A second movement clockwise [S1] stops the chronograph, and a third movement [S1] starts the chronograph again.

• To reset the chronograph, move the slide bar counterclockwise [S2]. This movement only functions when the counters are stopped. See above instructions for “Automatic Watch” , with the following changes. ENGLISHAt the beginning of a pulsation, start the chronograph counter by pressing push button [P1]. Press again when the 15 pulsations/respirations have been recorded. If after the 15 pulses, the operator stops the chronograph counter at 10 seconds, reading from the stopped second hand on the pulsemeter scale will result in a pulsation rate of 90 beats per minute. Combined with the single-button chronograph to allow for quicker measurement of pulse and respiration rates, the 15-pulse scale also minimizes human error due to reaction time to ensure a more accurate reading.

Pulsemeter: It measures human pulse or respiration rate.

MODELS: CM1010, CM1032, CM1038, CM3038

The wearer can nd the correct respiration / pulse per minute by recording the time needed for the listed number of pulsations. Description of operation Please refer to the above instructions for “Automatic Chronograph” to reset the chronograph counter to zero position. Trainmaster Pulsemeter (CM1010): The dial is marked ‘Graduated for 30 pulsations’. At the beginning of a pulsation/respiration, start the chronograph counter by pressing push-button [P1]. Press again when the 30 pulsations/ respirations have been recorded. If after the 30th pulse, the operator stops the chronograph counter at 20 seconds, reading from the stopped second hand on the pulsemeter scale will result in a pulsation rate of 90 beats per minute. Trainmaster Pulsemeter II (CM3038), Trainmaster Pulsemeter Chronometer (CM1010), Trainmaster Pulsemeter Pro (CM1038) and Trainmaster Doctor’s Chronograph (CM1032): The dial is marked ‘Graduated for 15 pulsations’. ENGLISH24 25 Telemeter: It measures the distance between the observer and a situation that is both visually and audibly observable. Description of operation Please refer to the above instructions for “Automatic Chronograph” to reset the chronograph counter to zero position. The Engineer Master II Telemeter (CM1020), Fireman Storm Chaser (CM2092), Fireman Storm Chaser DLC (CM2192) and Fireman Storm Chaser Pro (CM3090) can measure time accumulated up to 30 minutes with the minute counter beneath the 12 o’clock position. The push- buttons [P1] and [P2] are screw-in type; they have to be unscrewed in order to function. Start the chronograph by pressing push-button [P1] on the optical signal (e.g. a ash of lightning) and then stop the counter when the audio signal (e.g. thunder) is heard. The distance will be indicated on the telemetric scale in kilometers, pointed by the position of the chronograph second hand. MODELS: CM1020, CM2092, CM2192, CM3090 The telemeter scale is based on the speed of sound through air, approximately 340 meters per second. Originally, it has been used to measure the distance to lightning or the distance to artillery re. Tachymeter: It computes speed over a given distance. MODELS: CM1010, CM1092, CM2092, CM2098, CM2192, CM3888 Please refer to the above instructions for “Automatic Chronograph” to reset the chronograph counter to zero position. To compute the speed of a vehicule over a certain distance, press the top chronograph button [P1] to start timing. At the end of the xed distance, press the button again. If the time elapsed is 45 seconds, the second hand should point to the gure 80 on the Tachymeter scale. If the xed distance is one kilometer then the car is traveling 80 kilometers per hour. The Fireman Skylab (CM1092), Fireman Storm Chaser (CM2092) and Fireman Storm Chaser DLC (CM2192) have a tachymeter scale on the outer bezel for measurement of elapsed times up to 1 minute. The inner spiral of the Trainmaster Pulsemeter (CM1010) is a tachymeter scale capable of measuring elapsed time of up to 3 minutes. If for example, the time elapsed is 1 minute 30 seconds, the second hand will point to the gure 40 on the 2nd ring of the Tachymeter scale. Over a distance of 1 mile, the car is thus traveling at 40 miles per hour. The wearer can nd the correct speed per hour by recording the time needed to travel a certain distance. Description of operation

The triple calendar function may be also known as the “Month, Day, Date” feature. The Trainmaster Racer and Trainmaster Doctor’s Chronograph introduce a BALL in-house development, the Linear Triple Calendar function. This feature shows the month, the day and the date in a row at the 3 o’clock position for ease of use. To set the functions, unscrew the crown and pull it out to position [1].

• Date setting: Turn the crown clockwise until the correct date is reached.

• Day setting: Turn the crown counterclockwise until the correct day is reached.

• Month setting: The month function is set in the same manner as the date. By rotating the date through all 31 days, the month wheel will move forward to the next month. In order to prevent damages to the date-switching mechanism, we advise not to manually reset the Linear Triple Calendar between 8PM and 2AM.

Compass: It displays the direction based on time and position of the sun.

MODELS: DC2036, DC3036

The Engineer Hydrocarbon Spacemaster Orbital (DC2036) and Spacemaster Orbital II (DC3036) can be used as a compass synched to the sun or to store relative position with a separate compass. First remove the watch from the wrist and turn it until the local hour hand points at the sun. Find the point halfway between the hour hand and 12 o’clock. Turn the outer compass bezel to set South to that point, then all other cardinal points are displayed on the compass bezel. Please note, in the Southern hemisphere, the point between the sun and 12 o’clock will be North instead of South. (see Figure 1). Adjust the time backward one hour during Daylight Saving Time. When using to determine relative position, rst turn the watch in order for the “N” marking on the inner bezel to face North, then turn the outer compass bezel to the necessary oset (e.g. 10°) from the inner bezel. (See Figure 2) Fig.1 Fig.2 ENGLISH28 29

• Date setting: From position [1], turn the crown counterclockwise until the correct date is displayed in the date aperture, then push the crown back to position [0]. It is necessary to correct the date after every month with less than 31 days.

• In order to prevent damage to the date-switching mechanism, we advise not to manually reset the date between 8PM and 2AM.

• Time setting: At position [2], the second hand is stopped. To set the time for the Second Time Zone, turn the crown clockwise until the correct time is shown; both hour and minute hands of local and second time zone will move when the crown is turned clockwise.

MODELS: CM1010, CM2098, CM3188, DC3026, DG2016, DL2016, DM1022, DM2036, DM2076, DM2136, DM2176, DM3000, DM3108, GM1020, GM1032, GM1050, GM2020, GM2026, GM2098, NM1020, NM1022, NM1036, NM1038, NM1058, NM1098, NM2026, NM2028, NM2198, NM3022, NM3060, NM3888, NT3888 (following only applies to above model numbers with letter "C" in middle group of digits, e.g. DM3000A-SCA-BK) A chronometer is an extremely accurate watch. It takes its name from the Greek words chronos + metron meaning “to measure time”. A BALL chronometer is a highly accurate, mechanical watch whose precision has been tested and veried by the Ocial Swiss Chronometer Testing Institute (Contrôle Ociel Suisse des Chronomètres, or COSC, in French). Before issuing the certicate, the COSC conducts elaborate precision tests on each BALL movement using cameras and computers and analyzes the data. The COSC performs seven dierent tests. Failure to meet the minimum standard in any one of the tests means that a movement is rejected. Here is a brief summary of the testing procedures: ※ Test 1 Mean daily rate: After 10 days of tests, the mean daily rate of the movement must be within the range of -4 to +6 seconds per day. The COSC determines the mean daily rate by subtracting the time indicated by the movement 24 hours earlier from the time indicated on the day of observation.

The Trainmaster Cleveland Express Dual Time (GM1020) and Fireman Night Train (NM1092) share a 24-hour indicator at 11 o’clock. This indication is tied to the main time zone and thus shows 24-hour UTC or UMT time.

• Time setting: At position [1], the second hand is stopped. Turn the crown forward to set the local time, ensuring that the 24-hour window properly displays day or night. ENGLISH34 35 ※ Test 7 Resumption of the rate: This result is obtained by subtracting the average mean daily rate of the rst two days of testing from the mean daily rate of the last test day. The resumption of rate can’t be more than 5 seconds.

In case of shocks, the patented SpringLOCK

system guarantees that a mechanical caliber remains accurate by protecting the balance-spring with a "cage" designed to absorb the energy created when the watch is subjected to external impacts. Such impacts can cause standard mechanical movements to vary by up to approximately 60 seconds a day. The SpringLOCK

system reduces their eect by up to 66%, thus ensuring that the caliber remains accurate. ※ Test 2 Mean variation in rates: The COSC observes the movement rate in ve dierent positions (two horizontal, three vertical) each day over 10 days for a total of 50 rates. The mean variation in rates can’t be more than 2 seconds. ※ Test 3 Greatest variation in rates: The greatest of the ve variations in rates in the ve positions can’t be more than 5 seconds per day. ※ Test 4 Horizontal and vertical dierence: The COSC subtracts the average of the rates in the vertical position (on the rst and second days) from the average of the rates in the horizontal position (on the ninth and tenth days). The dierence must be no more than -6 to +8 seconds. ※ Test 5 Greatest deviation in rates: The dierence between the greatest daily rate and the mean daily test rate can’t be more than 10 seconds per day. ※ Test 6 Rate variation due to the temperature: The COSC tests the movement’s rate at 8 degrees Celsius (46 degrees Fahrenheit) and at 38 degrees Celsius (100 degrees Fahrenheit). It subtracts the cold temperature rate from the hot temperature rate and divides by 30. The variation must be no more than

0.6 seconds per day.

The Engineer Master II Moon Phase (NM1082) has been the rst moon phase watch illuminated with the stunning H

micro gas tubes. The moon phase wheel is activated by a 59-tooth gear, which shows the changes of the Moon’s phases as it goes through two of its 29.5-day cycles. The moon phase disc is easily set via Position [1] of the crown. In order to prevent damage to the movement, we advise not to turn the hands counterclockwise while setting the time (Position [2] of the crown) and not to set the moon phase function (Position [1] of the crown) between 3PM and 5PM. Set the Moon Phase display by turning to the nearest Full or New Moon, then moving forward by the appropriate number of days.

The BALL watches with power reserve function feature an indicator that displays the remaining power reserve on a hand. The indicator will turn counterclockwise as the power diminishes. During manual winding or when the watch is worn, the reserve indicator will move clockwise. The natural movements of your arms wind the watch up automatically and the energy will be stored up as power reserve. Manual winding is only necessary if you stop wearing your watch for several days or if it stopped. Remarks: Do not overwind the watch. Manual winding should be stopped when the power reserve indicator reaches the end of the scale. Continued winding could damage the movement. The display at bottom of the dial is the power reserve indicator. It shows the remaining power reserve in the watch in hours. If the watch is not worn, or during periods of low activity, the hand of the power reserve indicator will wind down. ENGLISH38 39 the temperature inside the watchcase, which is inevitably aected by the temperature of the wearer’s wrist. To reveal the actual environmental temperature, the watch should be taken off for about 10 minutes until the inside of the watch reaches the ambient temperature. When worn over a wetsuit or parka, the TMT should immediately display ambient temperature without any distortion due to body heat. The temperature scale in Celsius [°C] degrees can be easily converted into Fahrenheit scale following this simple formula: °F = °C x

+ 32. The temperature conversion scale can be found on the caseback of the TMT models.

MODELS: DT1016, DT1020, DT1026, NT1050, NT3888 The TMT watches can measure temperature from negative 35°C to positive 45°C (-30°F to 110°F) with the indicator at 6 o’clock. The temperature recorded by the TMT is precise and instantaneous but it records Please kindly note that the BALL Moon Phase function is only calibrated for the Northern Hemisphere.

MODELS: Models in the Engineer Hydrocarbon Series A special crown protection system was designed and patented for the Engineer Hydrocarbon series to guarantee its exceptional water resistance. A protective plate is placed around the crown, which ensures the crown is screwed back to its original secured position after time adjustment. To unlock the crown protector, depress the button and rotate the bar counter- clockwise. The crown can then be unscrewed for adjustment or winding. After fully screwing down the crown, move the crown protector into place by pushing down rmly until it locks.

MODELS: CM3188, DC1028, DC3026, DC3036, DG1016, DG1020, DG2016, DG2022, DL1016, DL2012, DL2016, DM1020, DM1022, DM2020, DM2036, DM2076, DM2108, DM2136, DM2176, DM3000, DM3020, DM3090, DM3108, DT1020, DT1026, GM3090, PM2096 Most of the models within the Engineer Hydrocarbon series feature an unidirectional rotating outer bezel incorporated with luminous paint for night reading. The bezel is painted with 60 minute elapsed time notation. The 60 minute bezel can be used for timing events by setting the zero dot at the current minute. The bidirectional rotating outer bezels of the Engineer Hydrocarbon GMT models are painted with 24-hour GMT notation. To use the GMT bezel, simply turn the bezel until the local hour matches the GMT hand. The Engineer Master II Diver models feature the rst inner divers’ bezel incorporated with H

micro gas tubes. The inner bezel rotates to measure duration. In order to ensure optimal water resistance, the crown must be screwed down before diving. ENGLISH42 43 The patented A-PROOF

System in mu-metal is a magnetic trench box located inside the case that protects a mechanical watch against magnetic elds up to the intensity of 80,000 A/m. Mu-metal is an alloy of nickel, iron, copper and molybdenum with very high magnetic permeability, which enables it to deviate static or low-frequency magnetic eld lines. The bottom of the casing includes a retractable diaphragm that allows the user to look at the movement through the back of the case by maintaining the diaphragm open when the environment is free of magnetic elds that could likely damage the movement. The user can then protect this same movement by closing the diaphragm through a simple rotation of the bezel. A colored indicator is situated next to the crown to inform the user if the diaphragm is either open or closed.

• To close the diaphragm, turn the bezel counterclockwise [D1] until the color of the indicator changes. Make sure not to force the mechanism, it could get damaged. In the fully closed position, the diaphragm locks the mu-metal anti-magnetic protection cage and guarantees the antimagnetic protection described above.

• To open the diaphragm, turn the bezel clockwise [D2] until the color of the indicator changes. In the retracted position, the diaphragm disappears to reveal the movement at work through the transparent case-back of the watch.

ENGLISH44 45 Caring for your BALL watch Like a car engine, we recommend that you have your mechanical BALL watch checked, cleaned and lubricated by a BALL authorized service center every three to ve years. This regular maintenance will prevent movement wear due to the drying of lubricating oils. Your BALL watch requires a certain amount of care. A few basic recommendations will help you to ensure its reliability and keep it looking new.

• Magnetic elds: The Engineer Hydrocarbon, Engineer Master II and Engineer II collections are all equipped with soft iron inner antimagnetic case for improved resistance. Nevertheless, please avoid placing your watch on refrigerators or loudspeakers as they generate powerful magnetic elds.

• Shocks: Although your BALL watch has been built to withstand shock according to the highest standard in the industry, extreme impact against this precision instrument should still be avoided. A strong impact on the winding crown or the crystal can impair the water resistance or damage the movement.

• Cleaning: Be sure to rinse your watch regularly with fresh water, especially after it has been in salt water. This will help preserve its appearance and running condition.

Position [X]: Normal position Position [0]: Manual winding position Position [1]: Day/Date adjustment Position [2]: Setting the time To operate the Sunrise/Sunset: [P1] Normal position [P2] Set sunrise or sunset time The Sunrise/Sunset feature enables the wearer to mark the time of sunrise or sunset on the dial of the watch. The indicators are marked on the internal bezel and show remaining time until impending sunrise or sunset. Only one indicator can be used at a time. To simplify the reading, the inner bezel has a dark coloration on the sunset side in opposition to a lighter coloration on the sunrise side.

• To set sunrise or sunset time, turn the button located at 2 o'clock [P1] clockwise [P2] until reaching the desired time.The inner bezel works as a passive indicator and will not move without the wearer’s intervention. It needs to be adjusted according to the predicted sunrise or sunset time. See above instructions for “Automatic Watch” , with the following changes.

ENGLISH46 47 Disposal and After-Sales Service For environmental protection, we recommend you to send your BALL watch to your local service center or our Swiss factory for disposal. If there is a defect with one of the lights or a part containing a light source, the watch should be returned for repair either to our factory or the designated service center.

• Strap: Our straps are made of nest calf, crocodile or alligator leather and are protected against humidity. To prolong the life of your leather strap, please avoid contact with water and dampness to prevent discoloration and deformation. Should the strap be immersed in salt water, we suggest that you rinse it with fresh water to prevent further damage. Please also avoid contact with greasy substances and cosmetic products, as leather is permeable. Optimum Safety Man has always been exposed to natural radiation arising from the earth as well as from outer space. The radiation we receive from outer space is called cosmic radiation or cosmic rays. On average, our radiation exposure due to all natural sources amounts to about 2.4 mSv a year - though this gure can vary widely, depending on the geographical location. Even in homes and buildings, there are also radioactive elements in the air. The wearer of an intact BALL watch is never exposed to any radiation. Even the hypothetical and unlikely accident entailing the simultaneous release of all tritium contained in H

gas tubes would present a very minor internal irradiation. In that case, the wearer is exposed to a dose 30,000 times lower than the one due to average background radiation as stated above. It is evident that it does not make sense to speak of a risk at all for such minor exposure. ENGLISH48 49 Special recommendations

• In order to avoid any errors, do not perform the DATE SETTING between 8PM and 2AM when the date mechanism is in action. Be careful not to confuse noon and midnight.

• Never operate chronograph’s pushers or crown when your timepiece is under water or if it is wet and ensure that the crown and pushers are properly pushed back or screwed down after each use.

• We recommend that you have the water resistance of your timepiece checked at a BALL authorized after-sales service center every three to ve years or whenever the timepiece’s case has been opened.
