We took our popular Police SL gauge
and made some changes and improvements: First we changed it's name
from the Police SL to The Reference SL (RSL-01).
Second, we took out the expensive Swiss movement and put in one of
our toughest Citizen movements - this allowed us to lower the price
and increase the gauges durability. We also added more paint
to the RSL's hands to make them even easier to see and read at a
glance. Lastly we've added a
Stick-On version now, so there's a price and mounting method for
everyone!

Glance and read - day or night!
One of the first practical
applications of radioactivity was the use of radium for
the excitation of zinc sulphide crystals to make them glow
in the dark. The radiation energy of the isotope was
transformed by the so-called "phoshors" (ZnS) into visible
light. Until the early seventies radium luminous compound
was widely used by the timepiece and aviation instrument
industry.
Realizing the risk of radium, RC
Tritec started in the late fifties to develop a new
self-luminous compound activated by tritium to replace
radium completely. With its very low radiotoxicity and
leaving no direct radiation outside of the watch, tritium
luminous compound was considered to be "the really safe"
alternative. 30 years later, in the early nineties,
Superlite® and Super-LumiNova® were developed and
immediately introduced to the world-wide watch industry.
Formotion's use of RC Tritec's Super-LumiGNova® afterglow /
photoluminescent pigments represent the latest, innovative
development in the field of non-radioactive lighting for the
watch industry. Based on their extremely improved light storing
capacity these new pigments are now being used for night
markings on our Night Vision watch dials with fantastic results.
Long afterglow or photoluminescent pigments operate like a
"light battery". After sufficient activation by sunlight or
artificial light they emit light in the dark for many hours and
can remain visible for the whole night. This activation and
subsequent light emission process can be repeated again and
again, and the material does not suffer any ageing.
Nothing else on the market even comes close!
Independent Glow Study Results:
The luminosity performance of the Formotion Super LumiNova™ gauges
based on DIN 67510 activation testing standards (5 min / 1000 LX
with Osram Ultravitalux (simulating sunlight)) and determined
the light intensities accordingly: the visibility level of 0.3
mCd/m2 = 30 nCd/cm2 is maintained for more than 8 hours.
