They all look pretty good, however I can see why you have chosen the storm chaser.

I prefer the Ionosphere to the Stormchaser myself.

You gotta love that tritium. I've got a few Traser and Luminox watches but the Ball line is miles above in terms of quality and refinement. I am liking the Ionosphere as well. Too bad all ETA-7750 watches are so thick but at 14.4mm this one isn't too bad. Regardless, both are real lookers and good luck with your future purchase.

The Hydrocarbon always intrigued me but I think the thickness would just be too much for me. I have a thing against arabic hour markers being cut off by chrono registers so the Ionosphere won't do.
The Storm Chaser looks great! I think it would look equally well on some straps as it does on the bracelet. |

I personally love BALL Watches. Actually they are the sponsors of one of the biggest free divers in the world his name is Guillaume Neri. There's a great video of him wearing a wet suit with the BALL watch brand on at Dean's Blue Hole. If you love the sea and are interested in diving you'll love it. BTW the music is spectacular.

Before I bought my DSSSD I was hot on a ball Hydrocarbon. I have never owned a Ball but liked everything about it. decided to go with the DSSD but, to be honest with you, the Hydrocarbon is still calling.
