Amazing New Hybrid Runs Without Gas
The new face of time? Stauer’s Compendium Hybrid fuses form and functionality for UNDER $50! Read on...
I
nnovation is the path to the future.
Stauer takes that seriously. That’s why
we developed the
Compendium Hybrid,
a
stunningly-designed hybrid chronograph
with over one dozen analog and digital
functions
that is more versatile than any
watch that we have ever engineered.
New technology usually starts out at
astronomical prices and then comes
down years later. We skipped that step to
allow everyone the chance to experience
this watch’s brilliant fusion of technology
and style. We originally priced the Stauer
Compendium Hybrid
at $395 based on
the market for advanced sports watches...
but then stopped ourselves. Since this is
no ordinary economy, we decided to start
at
88% off
from day one. That means this
new technological marvel can be yours
for only $49!
Welcome a new Digital Revolution.
With the release of the dynamic new
Compendium,
those boxy, plastic wrist
calculators of the past have been replaced
by this luxurious LCD chronograph that
is sophisticated enough for a formal
evening out, but rugged and tough
enough to feel at home in a cockpit,
camping expedition or covert mission.
The watch’s extraordinary dial seamlessly
blends an analog watch face with a stylish
digital display. Three super-bright lumi-
nous hands keep time along the inner
dial, while a trio of circular LCD windows
track the hour, min-
utes and seconds. An
eye-catching digital
semi-circle animates
in time with the sec-
ond hand and shows
the day of the week.
The watch also fea-
tures a rotating bezel,

backlight. The
Compendium Hybrid
secures with a rugged stainless steel band
and is water-resistant to 3 ATMs.
Guaranteed to change the way you
look at time.
At Stauer, we believe that
when faced with an uphill economy,
innovation and better value will always
provide a much-needed boost. Stauer is so
confident of their latest hybrid timepiece
that we offer a money-back-guarantee. If
for any reason you aren’t fully impressed
by the performance and innovation of
the Stauer
Compendium Hybrid
for $49,
simply return the watch within 30 days
for a full refund of the purchase price. The
unique design of the
Compendium
greatly
limits our production, so don’t hesitate
to order! Remember: progress and
innovation wait for no one!
