contents Motivated by the Berry-Tabor Conjecture and the seminal work of Rudnick-Sarnak, the fine-scale properties of sequences $(a_nα)_{n \in \mathbb{N}} \mod 1$ with $(a_n)_{n \in \mathbb{N}} \subseteq \mathbb{N} $ and $α$ irrational have been extensively studied in the last decades. In this article, we prove that for $(a_n)_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ arising from the set of rough numbers with explicit roughness parameters and any badly approximable $α$, $(a_nα)_{n \in \mathbb{N}} \mod 1$ has Poissonian correlations of all orders, and consequently, Poissonian gaps. This is the first known explicit sequence $(a_nα)_{n \in \mathbb{N}} \mod 1$ with these properties. Further, we show that this result is false for Lebesgue almost every $α$, thereby disproving a conjecture of Larcher and Stockinger [Math. Proc. Camb. Phil. Soc. 2020]. The method of proof makes use of an equidistribution result mod $d$ in diophantine Bohr sets which might be of independent interest.
