That's nice Matt! What's its lineage (TD or build)?

That's a really cool piece Stumpy. What era is that (How old)?

Not entirely sure. My dad picked it up in Moscow in 1991. He paid $10 [emoji15] When soviet Russia fell there were deals to be found

Poljot is now sold to the Germans but was originally a product of the First State Watch Factory of Russia named after their first flight to space! Now it's called poljot international and Baslika.

Couple of great deals can be found online if you can ignore the movements inside, they are great value buys!

Great build Matt, like a nicely cared for Vintage watch should look!

These watches are a pain in the a$$ to replicate
