Yes that's American distribution model Geratherm notice the Green on top that means its an oral model, the rectal model has Red on top.

Ah, that´s interesting. In Germany Geratherm only produces one standard glas thermometer for all three classic ways to take the temperature. And this thermometer has got a green top.
So here it´s normal if you see a green top sticking out between someone´s cheeks. ;-)
I have got this thermometer and use it the rectal way of course. But it would be great to get an only rectal version with a red top...

The Geratherm bulb is the same on the rectal and oral models. It's not an excitiing thermometer. Sadly, the former pear-shaped bulbs are long gone.
