Win a watch - background clues from old announcement

Dear PuristS,

PuristSPro and St Gallen Horology Co have collaborated on a PuristSPro All-Black Rescue watch – a special, exclusive version of the St. Gallen Disinfectable Rescue model.

Feedback from medical personnel and general public has been positive. PuristS’ physicians and world-renowned collectors have helped St Gallen design a useful and affordable SportS Watch and Tactical (SWaT) © timepiece. 

Our doctors “twisted some joints” and St Gallen agreed to make 178 pieces of the PuristSPro All-Black Rescue for the PuristS’ community.

St Gallen Disinfectable Rescue Watch

Standard Kit holds watch, black straps, buckle, cleaning tool and 316L steel "sterilisation hook"

(This particular red colour was not good enough for PuristS)

Here is a teaser dial drawing of the PPro ABR watch (simulated night view): 
 

The final PPro ABR watch has changes to hands, dial, case, buckle and even one component in the movement.....as is the PuristS way........

Two colors of medical grade silicone straps will be provided as a set:

Regular Black and PuristSPro Red .

Silicone 'rubber' is a highly inert material and does not react with most chemicals.

Due to its inertness, it is used in many medical applications and in medical implants

i.e. Non-Allergenic.

It offers excellent resistance to extreme temperatures ( -55°C to +300°C).

Organic rubber is a C - C polymer, and thus susceptible to ozone, UV, heat and other aging factors, whereas silicone (polysiloxane) is a Si-O-Si polymer that withstands those well.

Please state your preferred strap circumference:

Short: 5.5 – 6.5 inches (14.0 – 16.5 cm)

Long: 6.5 – 7.5 inches (16.5 – 19.0 cm)

If in doubt, always go for a looser fit because rubber always pinches….trust me.

St Gallen can provide (at extra charge) additional non-disinfectable calf leather or galuchat (sting-ray) straps with common tang-buckles. It goes against the pure ideals of disinfection but we know that some people will ask.....        Strap prices depends on demand.
