The Team
For watch enthusiasts, Ball watches represent a rare blend of heritage and uncompromising, performance. Known for their precision engineering and legendary durability, Ball watches have earned a loyal following among both collectors and everyday wearers alike.

At Peter & Co. Jewelers, we’re proud to showcase these exceptional timepieces and help those in Avon Lake, Ohio, and the surrounding Cleveland, OH, area discover what sets the brand apart. Here, we discuss what makes Ball stand out and some of the highlights of its watches.

What Sets Ball Watches Apart

Ball watches trace their heritage back to the late 19th century. Back then, accuracy was a necessity, not just a luxury. The brand became closely associated with American railroads, where precise timekeeping was essential to keep workers safe. This legacy of reliability continues today and influences everything from the way their hands move to their robust and durable construction. Each Ball watch is made to perform under demanding conditions, making it a trusted choice for those who value both history and performance. For those who need a hardworking and reliable watch, these timepieces have several highlights that make them stand out.

Unmatched Visibility

One of the most recognizable features of Ball watches is how easy they are to read. Many models feature self-powered micro gas tubes on their hands and hour markers, allowing the watch to glow continuously in low-light conditions without requiring an external light source. This technology ensures you can see and read it clearly at night, indoors, or in other low-light environments.

Rugged Durability

Ball watches are known for their rugged construction. From shock resistance to advanced anti-magnetic protection, these timepieces are built to handle real-life wear. This durability often exceeds the industry standards, which makes them ideal for those who lead an active lifestyle or professionals who rely on precision. Whether you’re navigating a busy workday or enjoying time outdoors, this accessory keeps up.

Balance of Craftsmanship and Innovation

While Ball Watch was founded for use on American railroads, today it is known for its iconic Swiss craftsmanship that’s paired with modern technological advancements. These watches are meticulously assembled and rigorously tested to ensure they operate well for years. Additionally, their precise automatic movements deliver consistent accuracy, even after years of wear. The modern logo includes a stylized “RR,” highlighting its railroad heritage while having innovative features, such as:

  • Shock resistance and anti-magnetic protection
  • High water resistance
  • Durable case materials, including stainless steel and sapphire crystals
  • Tritium gas illumination
As a result, these watches feel both timeless and forward-thinking.

Styles for Everyone

While Ball watches are celebrated for their performance, they also offer a wide range of designs. From classic, understated models to bold, sport-inspired timepieces, their collection appeals to a variety of personal styles for both men and women. Whether you prefer a clean, stainless-steel accessory or a refined leather brand, these watches balance function with sophisticated design that can be worn in both casual and professional settings.
