I have an Elgin made Ball 333 18s 17j that is an absolutely amazing watch. It is by far the nicest pocket I own and one of the most accurate it still keeps standard time after all these years!!! I am looking for a correct case for it though I want a ball model case but cannot find one. It is in a 20th century case now and its nice but not right. If anyone of you fine gentlemen have one that you would be willing to part with please let me know I prefer a nickel or coin silver case but gold filled would work fine. Condition is not a huge problem I just want to make it correct. I would pay a nice amount for a nice case. Thanks, Dan | |||

I will give the Ball to my father as a gift when I get the case I want, and I just pray that this one is the one i get. I really really need it. Thanks for your help my friend. | ||||

Dan, I have never found a Ball-Elgin in a perceived as original and marked as "Ball-Model" case, the Ball-Elgins were essentially sold in a time immediately before we find those markings. It would be interesting to see if Rob's case has case-screw marks that line up with Ball-Hamilton movements. For more check the watches shown here in Ball-Elgin (all were 18size) Images then look at these posts for additional information on this subject... https://ihc185.infopop.cc/eve/f...&reqWords=Ball-Elgin By the way, our requests for items and materials as well as all our Trading Marts are IHC 185 Members Only areas, I urge you to Join and Support IHC185 there are many, many benefits of membership! https://ihc185.infopop.cc/eve/f...6019371/m/7243966867 Best wishes, Lindell | |||
