OH Man, No time for a real review so Ill let the pics do the talking. Suffice to say this watch was indeed BNIB, everything still wrapped, sealed etc. I have never bought a 2nd watch that truly was this pristine. This thing just pops, its chunky, tall, good heft, and the blued hands are killer. Came with the steel sub, rubber strap, tools etc. Hope you like the pics.....Sorry I got carried away snapping pics...Just some quick shots for now.....Ball Hydrocarbon Trieste Bathyscaph

Man, that thing has some real presence. Congrats to you.
Love the bezel height and taper opposite the bowl case back.
Always liked their unique handling of the crown guard.
Very nice...always great to get a pre-loved that seems BNIB.
We should all be so lucky. Great watch.

This is an EXCEPTIONAL watch Eric !!! Shocked Very Happy You REALLY have some GREAT taste
in watches imho. Between your Anonimos, and watches like this one right here, you
have to be pretty proud of how uniquely cool your collection is ! My Ball Hydrocarbon Trieste Bathyscaph Has LAnded 933578 ..I think it's
unbelievable how this Ball is BRAND NEW like this first of all ! WOW ! ..Then when
you start looking at all of the parts of this watch, you really start seeing how special
it is on top of that. Looking at the bright white dial is almost TOO much fun if you ask
me. It's something how that texturing looks on it. All of the lines, and turns actually
help you notice other parts of the dial. Literally leading you to stare at the sub-dials,
hands, and numbers. It's PHENOMENAL ! Those blued hands you mentioned are some of
nicest I have seen, and it's neat to see that the Tritium tubes are fitted on them so
nicely. Even the second hand, along with sub-dial hands have tiny tubes on them.
Yowza ! ..Also think the sub-dials themselves, as well as the numbers on them are
REAL nice. The white dial seems to make the sub-dials much more noticeable. Great
stuff Eric ! Smile ..Have to also say that the numbers on the watch have the most
INCREDIBLE look with the way the tubes make up the numbers themselves. That is
one of the things that helps make this watch SO GOOD in my opinion. Add in the
AWESOME bezel with it's raised sections, and number look, and this watch is becoming
one that has it ALL ! ..Even the side view shows more details with the edge of the
bezel, and the overall width of the case, which is ASTONISHING. I like how Ball
manages to make this watch so classy, and sporty at the same time. You have all
of the quality and workmanship you could ask for, along with the coolest little details.
From the dial texturing, to the numbers done in tubes, to the bezel, and even that
SUPER COOL Trieste Bathyscaph logo on the dial ! My Ball Hydrocarbon Trieste Bathyscaph Has LAnded 46145 ..The crown guard area is
something to behold as well with it's unique look, and just all around coolness. It's
something that sets this watch apart from the crowd imho. Another excellent trait
of this watch has to be the size, and width of the case. It just BIG enough to make
you wonder how deep this watch could really go under water. At the same time it has
to be great feeling that weight on the wrist, without it taking over your entire wrist.
What a perfect size, and look Eric. Speaking of perfect looking ! That bracelet looks
like it fits this watch perfectly. The width, and look are aggressive yet REAL smooth
and classy. ..Have to also mention that the case-back is CRAZY good on this one.
The look with that submarine is EXCEPTIONAL ! ..That has to be the theme here..
From the watch, to the extras this watch comes with like that metal Sub ! This watch
is Exceptional !!! ..I hope you really enjoy it for years to come ! Congrats to you !!!

Outstanding photos ! ..Exceptional watch ! Smile
