The Ball caliber RR1105 is an automatic watch movement with a small seconds subdial at 6:00 (Ball refers to this as “subsidary seconds”. The RR1105 is basically an ETA 2895-2 with Ball branding on the rotor.
Ball doesn’t say much about the RR1105-C on their official site. Apart from the listing on their movements page, the following sentence is all that was found:
“The sapphire exhibition case back allows for a glimpse into the intricate workings of the BALL RR1105-C chronometer caliber.” –Source (also the source of the stock image above)
RR1105 VS RR1105C:
There is another version of the RR1105 known as the RR1105-C. The difference is that the “C” version is a chronometer rated movement, certified by COSC.
