Product Description:

COMMEMORATING THE 80TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE DOOLITTLE RAIDERS.
Eighty-one years ago, in one of the darkest moments of WWII, eighty pilots risked their lives to take on an impossible mission for the freedom of mankind. They are the Doolittle Raiders. On the 80th anniversary of their legendary mission, BALL Watch proudly presented the all-new Engineer Master II Doolittle Raiders series to pay homage to their bravery, selflessness and sacrifices. Comprised of 3 different models that are varied in movement types and case sizes, the series combines classic military toughness with modern watchmaking technology.

SHINE IN THE DARKEST MOMENTS.
Legibility is of upmost importance in any military timepiece, thus we have opted for a minimalistic approach for the Doolittle Raiders series. On the dial, the hour markers and hands are equipped with the baton-shaped micro gas tubes, creating a clean yet eye-catching design. The revolutionary micro gas tubes shine automatically without any form of charging and provide stellar luminosity no matter how dark it becomes. In the Doolittle Raiders series, we offer 2 choices of micro gas tube colors: a unique rainbow colorway or the classic combo with green, orange and yellow. Different styles, same consistent brightness.

FEARLESS COURAGE MEETS THE TOUGHEST ARMOR.
Toughness comes in many forms – and ventures into any terrain. Forged from robust stainless steel, the Doolittle Raiders series is presented in three different case sizes, from 40mm to 46mm. In keeping with the retro-military ethos, the cases feature both polished and brushed finishing for added contrast and tapering lugs for wearing comfort. The oversized onion crown is not only aesthetic but also allows for better grip with gloved hands. All in all, the material construction is able to withstand the demands of intense misson – in the air, on land and at sea.

MORE VARIETY. SAME REFINED CRAFTSMANSHIP.
The 40mm model: Powered by the automatic BALL RR1103 movement, its precision is protected by the astonishing anti-magnetic protection up to 1,000 Gauss (80,000 A/m).

The 45mm model: With the latest automatic BALL RR1108 movement, its 54-hour power reserve lasts more than 2 days.

The 46mm model: With the manual-winding BALL RR2102 movement, the subsidiary seconds on the 9 o’clock position adds a unique flair to this vintage-inspired piece.

The 40mm model comes with a solid case back with Doolittle raid motif, whereas the 45mm and 46mm versions adopt a sapphire crystal transparent case back to display the inner workings of the movement. The whole series is water resistant to 100 meters.

BOLD. DARING. ASSURED.
The dial design of the Doolittle Raiders series leaves no doubt as to its inspiration. The Raider emblem representing the 80 raiders has taken the center stage of the dial, the bright yellow tone is in perfect contrast to the 3 dial colors: black, blue and green. As a limited series, the limited edition number of each timepiece is individually marked on the dial, the added uniqueness elevates the Doolittle Raiders series from a functional piece to a collectible. To echo the military theme, a silver pilot insignia is added to round out the design.

THEY TURNED THE TIDE.
From the intention to strike the heart of the enemy’s empire to the unprecedented launch of B-25 bombers from the deck of the aircraft carriers, the Doolittle Raid was an audacious mission in many ways. In the aftermath of the surprise attack on the Pearl Harbor, the U.S. military force devised a counter-action plan, led by the then Lieut. Col. James H. Doolittle, in less than 5 months. On April 18, 1942, 80 volunteer raiders successfully launched their 16 B-25 bombers from USS Hornet, though it was ahead of the planned schedule, as they were spotted by the enemy. The additional distance meant they might not have enough fuel to land safely. At the end, only 69 raiders escaped capture or death. The success of the mission has greatly boosted Allied morale and reversed the tide of WWII.
