Nice watch though. I can't think of a Ball I don't like the look of without the arabic numbers.
It was in Rob's write up, but I will correct in a few moments.

1) The Alpinist has some competition
2) Really cool and interesting functions / specs - that isn't something you see every day. And...
3) ...Now that I've seen a limited edition duck watch I believe I actually have seen everything.

That's a lot of watch for the money. The one thing I don't quite understand is the operation/function of the sunrise/sunset indicator. Do you simply adjust the bezel to show the time of the sunrise/sunset?

I've question this a bit and if you look it is coordinated so sunrise=East and sunset=West. The light and dark half circle I believe is coordinated with the the north and south hemisphere when you are utilizing the watch bezel and hands as a compass. You compensate differently based on hemisphere. When I figured this out it makes more sense.

I have to admit I missed the review Rob did, so I read that just now. It sure is a beauty!
Not too sure about the duck on the dial, but it is fun, and I like the idea behind it.
