Ball Watch Trainmaster Standard Time NM3888D-LL1CJ-WH

Ball Watch Company unveils a new forever classic model: the Trainmaster Standard Time watch. Before the adoption of standard time in 1883, time was set depending on the position of the sun. This resulted in every city having its own time zone, making the synchronization of railroad timetables extremely complicated. From 1883 onward, U.S. railroad companies put in place a new system to divide the nation into four time zones. This change led to the disappearance of over 70 official time zones, and has continued as the official time system to the present day.
