"Premethium (Pm) 147"

 @Horlogerie excellent post earlier on re luming of watch hands coincided with a friend kindly giving me a gift of two old (his words) watches. :yes:

At the base of the dial on the Rotary Sport watch is the letters 'Pm'.

As I had not seen this before (honestly) I proceeded to do a bit of research.

It appears to be the symbol for 'Premethium (Pm) 147' a radioactive isotope, sounds like something which an assassin would use to coat the tip of his umbrella. :(

The questions, concerns it now raises for me are:

1. Is the watch intended for a Lady?

2. Will handling, wearing the watch hinder any future plans to become a donor?

3. Will it negate the need to switch the light on at night when emptying my bladder?

4. Has any other member come across this type of lume & was it's use common?

As yet I have not inspected the movement as it has literally just arrived but it will go to doctors for new crystal etc, after crimbo.

Any comments as always will be appreciated.
