The Pook Ankkuri is a high-quality automatic watch with the spirit of 70’s designed by Andreas Prepula. It is also a faithful for the Pook Sukeltaja design, but a bit more vintage. The dial has a full lumed-feature. In dial there is a small logo emblem, which was originally designed by Seppo Prepula, Andreas` father about five decades ago. This design is called ”Ankkuri”, anchor in Finnish, for a very special reason. Andreas used to join his father for very many diving trips in the 70`ies in Finnish Archipelago. He remembers specially one trip, when his father and other divers found a shipwreck, and managed to get out from the bottom of the sea a very big and rusty anchor. Seppo and his fellow divers gave this anchor to a local sea museum in 1978. Andreas was 7 years old boy at that time. This anchor can be seen today in exhibition in sea museum in Uusikaupunki. It tells a story of the dangers of the merchant ships had to cope with every day, and for Andreas a memento happy day of childhood spent with his father.
Attention to all divers, on the back cover of the watch there is a fully usable and useful memo list of decompression table.
The anchor and other cultural heritages of Finnish history can be admired in the wonderful museum in Uudenkaupunki, more information on the website: https://uusikaupunki.fi/kulttuuri-ja-vapaa-aika/museo/museokheitet/wahlbergin-museotalo
