38mm ST1901 Pulsograph LA2201B

LIMITED & EXCLUSIVE · 100 pieces only. Once this run sells out, it is retired for good — never remade.

The ST1901 Pulsograph. 38mm. One of 100.

A doctor's watch — you don't see many. Clear, legible black pulsometer scales on an enamel-white dial that reads like porcelain, with mirror-finished hour markers and a polished bezel. Limited and exclusive to 100 pieces.

Inside is the hand-wound ST1901 — a mechanical chronograph caliber in production since the 1960s. Officially rated -10 to +40 seconds a day; across 30 pieces we tested dial-up, ours ran between -1 and +8 (not every piece will match that, but it tells you how this batch was built). Sapphire caseback, so the caliber is part of the show.

Questions, Answered

Everything worth knowing before you build.

What is the ST1901 movement?

A hand-winding mechanical chronograph caliber in production since the 1960s — one of the oldest and most reliable workhorse chronograph movements in existence. Official accuracy is rated -10 to +40 seconds per day; across 30 pieces we tested dial-up, ours ran between -1 and +8 seconds per day (not every piece will match that, but it shows how the batch was built).

Is the ST1901 chronograph a limited edition?

Yes — each ST1901 model is limited and exclusive to 100 pieces. The LA2201A speedmaster-style chronograph and the LA2201B pulsograph are 100 pieces each.

What is a pulsograph watch?

A pulsograph — also called a doctor's watch — carries a pulsometer scale on the dial. Start the chronograph, count the marked number of heartbeats, and the seconds hand points to the pulse rate per minute. Ours pairs the scale with an enamel-white dial and the hand-wound ST1901 chronograph caliber.
