 Watch, magnetic stainless?

[joaquins]

At 8:10 of their film reveal they state they designed a stainless steel strap with magnetic clamp? WTF they are talking about?

Are marketers so stupid or it's just me noticing this...

stainless steel is only non-magnetic if it is 100% austenitic. if there is at least a small amount of ferrite and/or martensite in the steel it will be magnetic

I know, try my kitchen sink... But still will be much weaker than other options, and you don't want to loose your watch, clearly not this one... Apparently they did they own custom alloy to do so, but still, you can't claim stainless and magnetic in the same phrase without making it clear, doesn't sound good to me...
