About this entry

67% of key specs known. Missing: weight, hardening, AR coating, crown, bracelet offered.

Pook's quartz field watch, named after the Salpa Line, the 1,200km fortification line built across eastern Finland in 1940-41 and 1944, and planned with active reservists; the later Rokka is on the same case and movement and is recorded here as an edition. Both are filed under the brand's "Previous models". Spec tables (Salpa and Rokka agree): 316L stainless steel, PVD-coated; "W39mm x H47mm – without crown" (the height is recorded as lug-to-lug); "full thickness" 10mm (taken as including the crystal); 20mm lugs; sapphire crystal; stainless steel crown (screw-down not stated); screw-down caseback; Miyota 2035 quartz (±20 s/month stated), hours, minutes and seconds; "Swiss luminous" hands and dial; 10 ATM / 100m; 36-month warranty; assembled in Joensuu. The whole collection is serial-numbered from 1940.1 (Salpa) on, the Rokka from 1940.300. Prices are in EUR including VAT. Not stated: weight, crystal shape, AR coating, bezel, lume grade. Editions. Salpa (2021, black, blue or green dial with the Salpa Line drawn on it, nylon strap): the description gives the price as EUR 285 including VAT, ordered in advance, and the brand's Finnish page archived in April 2023 has the same price in its product data. Members of the Reserve Officers' Federation (RUL) and the Reservists' Association got theirs packed in a field pouch with their association's logo, and the watches were sold with them to support Finnish war veteran organisations. Rokka (2022, sold out): "Army mental look" with clear hands and Arabic numerals, its strap stated as varying; EUR 249 including VAT on the brand's page archived in July 2022.
