Ball Engineer Hydrocarbon Spacemaster Orbital Watch
"The Amortiser" sounds like a banking industry themed super villain. But here it is a cool piece of functionality that you won't find on other watches in this price range. New from Ball watches is the Engineer Hydrocarbon Spacemaster Orbital watch, a mouthful of a name, but suitable for a chunky timepiece with this much functionality. I got my hands on this watch, which should be available close to the time you read this.Ball fitted the Spacemaster Orbital (what I will call it for short) with ETA's newer Valjoux 7754.

Some group shots!
Inspired by Ben's post, I took some time out to take some up to date photos. My camera skills are poor, and my camera is 6 years old, so is in dire need of an upgrade; notwithstanding this, here are a few. Groups shots first, then one by one:
