I'm interested in Ball and very curious with regard to the following. Maybe Jeremy as a representative of Ball can give a correct response. With ETA having five quality grades for each of their movements(and the 2824 or 2836 in particular) which QUALITY grade is Ball using in their non-COSC models. Also while most would PRESUME that a COSC model would use the top chronometer grade of the ETA movement that doesnt have to be the case. So additionaly I would ask Jeremy to advise as to what grade of movement Ball uses in their COSC certified watches? Thanks
All Ball Chronometers start with Top COSC movements.
Ball calibres start with Top grade movements.
Other ETA-based nonchronometers start with Elabore movements.
Modifications & engravings vary depending on the model.
