21 September 12:00PM


Received an encrypted message from MTF last 3 days, to gather at the Garuda, 21 Sept, 12pm.









Entering the meeting place... nice aroma greeted us.


Zen, minimalist set up.  As we will be receiving the All Black RESCUE watch, we need a 'clinical place'.


Agent No. DXXX arrived the earliest, while I was 'sniping' ...

Observe the facial expression of Agent DXXX ... seems pleased.


He opened up the box...




Stared and savour the moment...



What's that?  Ah.... the hook to hang the watch (by the strap) during autoclaving.





Once he held the watch, he exclaimed..."Wow!  its hefty! "


Then he posed for the wrist-shot.


Another 2 more agents turned up... Agent SXXX was reading the instruction ...


Back to Agent DXXX, he has started assembling...




Agent NXXX, wasted no time, and started assembling...






"Hey...someone starts the chronograph, I can complete very fast."


"Nice right ! "....


These are a pair!


Wow...still not done?


Agent SXXX, using a lot of strength....you know why? See his T-shirt....boy....



"Hey, do you need help?"  This man is fast...its already on his left-wrist.


Yes...that's the way smile  Make sure the word "Silicon is nearer to the lug-end!"


Err...please be careful with your left index finger...how did you do that?


Ha.....look at Agent SXXX's head.... man...'I think this place is warm." 

Agent SXXX, could you take your pulse now?  Is it increasing? smile


A Fashion shot...


Agent LXXX,  ok, we will stop the chrono now....food coming....


The Sup Ayam ( chicken soup )... it is very tasty!


Best Ayam Goreng ( fried chicken )with the coconut shreds....


Ikan Kakap Goreng ( fried kakap fish )


Oh...another favourite....Gulai Telur ( egg in turmeric and coconut milk, a bit spicy )...simply delicious!


Perkedel Sapi ( beef croquette: fried mixed of minced beef, potato and spices )


Rendang Sapi ( beef rendang: stewed beef in chilli, coconut milk, shallots and spices )...superb, superb...I need more rice now.


Sambal Teri Tempe ( chilli fried silver fish and fremented soya bean )


Gulai Singkong ( tapioca leaf in turmeric and coconut milk )



The Agents...




Now for dessert....


Es Merah Delima ( shavened ice with red-coloured diced water chestnut, sliced coconut and jackfruit, topped-up with coconut milk )
Nice Ice-cold dessert which will 'brain-freeze".... with the killer complimentary  RED straps only for the PuristS.


Wristshots and Desserts.........


Es Singgalang ( shavened ice with sliced papaya, mango and rambutan topped-up with red syrup )


Es Cendol ( shavened ice with green cendol jelly and red bean, topped up with brown sugar syrup )


Es Cendol (same with above) and Es Teler ( shavened ice with sliced coconut, jackfruit, seacoconut seed and jelly,
topped-up with chocolate milk)


Jus Alpokat ( avocado juice )




What are they doing?  For the ultimate table-shot! 


From 3 angles ......enjoy!


3 more boxes not open and collected yet...otherwise will total of 13 ABRs!






PuristS and Friends from L.A.  ..... we look forward seeing your launch!!



The PPro ABRs of Singapore

That was tapioca leaf in yellow turmeric coconut cream sauce. The tapioca is very versatile; the main cash crop are the roots which provide tapioca flour but people don't realise that the leaves are also edible albeit low in nutritional value. Still, tapioca saved millions from hunger during World War II when the populace fled into the jungle to escape the Nippon Occupation troops....... Regards, MTF

strap for the PPro ABR edition is black silicone. The PuristSPro Red silicone strap is a special PPro ABR Only free accessory. The calf leather and galuchat straps are extra orders from St Gallen Most of the Malaysians...er.....all of them.....chose to have their watches delivered to Malaysia as there is ZERO tax on watches in that country. Had they collected their watches in Singapore, the tax is 7%. Regards, MTF

I only have the light grey strap because St Gallen sent me several sample straps of various colors and materials to show at our LA event which will start in a few hours. And btw, St Gallen does make an all-white strap which also looks good IMO. I just prefer the light grey strap cause it's less feminine IMO. The bright orange strap looks great too, and the translucent strap gives the ABR a "plastic Swatch look". Basically, any color strap looks good with the ABR, and with the plethora of strap c

Please note that the free prototype plastic buckle on the red strap is from St Gallen and not ready for purchase yet. St Gallen have asked that the PuristS who are lucky to have received the plastic buckle to tender user feedback. Some healthcare institutional clients have asked for plastic buckles and so these are in beta-testing...... Already, our small sample of 3 of the first users saying it was more "comfortable"........whatever that means. MTF
