Overview

Ball Roadmaster Perseverer gives its light blue dial a horizontal pattern, framed by a 40 mm 904L stainless steel case and paired with a steel bracelet.

Inspired by Henry Ford’s determination, the Perseverer has a restrained, retro-modern design with clean lines and a horizontally patterned light blue dial. The bands give the surface texture and depth in daylight. After dark, 16 sealed tritium gas tubes illuminate the time display continuously, without a battery or a charge from external light.

The case is made from 904L stainless steel, selected for its resistance to corrosion. It measures 40 mm across and 12 mm thick, with an anti-reflective sapphire crystal above the dial. The Ball RR1103 automatic movement drives the hours, minutes, seconds, and date.

The watch is shock-resistant to 5,000 Gs, and the case is water-resistant to 10 atm. A stainless steel bracelet fastens with a folding clasp.

Questions & Answers

Why does the Perseverer refer to Henry Ford?

Ball presents the model as a tribute to Ford’s determination. Its restrained, retro-modern design expresses that idea through clean lines and a horizontally patterned dial.

How does the patterned dial look by day and at night?

Horizontal lines give the light blue dial texture and depth in daylight. After dark, 16 tritium tubes illuminate the time display. Tritium inside each sealed glass tube activates a luminous coating continuously, without a battery or prior exposure to light. The glow gradually fades as the tritium decays, with a half-life of about 12.3 years.
