Can you provide picture or link to the original phrase? That doesn't look Chinese to me.

"针一", based on the context, it is probably just a (not so important) jargon used in a specific company or industry.  I think, it describes the quality of some material, I guess the material is "针" needle, and “一” can mean first class or category one

I think your frustration might caused by the fact that, the older generation Wenzhounese is more comfortable with  their dialect (namely wenzhounese) than standard chinese (Mandarin) due to some historical issue in recent history

The people I speak with are 30-50 year old engineers and accountants. And the way they speak is far too different I got used to hear in Chinese soap operas :)

No, it does not mean "first class material". Are you buying some kind of fabric material or glasses cleaning cloth?

针一, 针二 often used in microfiber

1.针一 200g/cm³ microfiber；
2.针二 180g/cm³ microfiber；
3.针三 150g/cm³ microfiber。

`针一` and `针二` are just names of materials. They refer to different kinds of cloth. (Those words are quite professional. Even native speakers don't know that.)
