SWISS MILITARY WATCH |
|
|
| The technical term for the unique H3-light is a Gaseous Tritium Light Source (GTLS). |
| |
These low level light sources have unique properties, they are unaffected by water, oil and most corrosive materials an require no external power source or exposure to light in order to work. Quality control is the dominant consideration in the labour intensive manufacturing process H3-watches go through. They are 100% inspected for dimensions, brightness, temperature, thermal shock an Tritium leakage. Random sample testing is performed continually for discolouration, brightness decay, reduced pressure an vibration effects.
They remain fail-save and maintenance free and have a useful life in excess of 10-20 years. |
With the micro-gas lights built into hands, hour marking and bezel of the watch whether it be midday, midnight or five in the morning, the time displayed on the face of the watch is readily visible at a glance. The most effective colours for human eye perception are generally green and yellow or orange as these are the preferred colours due to the eyes maximum sensivity to them.
GTLS means there is no need to hold a H3-watch up to the light and you won´t need to press anything to see it – just a quick glance will give you the correct time, anytime day or night – leaving you free to concentrate on whatever you´re doing.
|
| Each H3-light is a laser sealed borosilicate glass vial which has been coated internally with phosphor. In one single process the H3-light is sealed by a CO² laser and injected with gaseous tritium. The low energy electrons emitted by the tritium, excite the phosphor and this creates a cold energy which produces al low level light without filaments or heat dissipation and no risk of fire or explosion. |
