Very nice, can you read russian cyrylica ?

Thanks, and no I don't. The lower crown rotates the disk, I'm pretty sure they're cities in Russian, but I don't know lol. I'm assuming it works like a GMT watch, but instead of an additional hand, you have a sub dial.

No, not at all. Just get a shirt with a cuff with some play and this will be just fine.

Man I love that beast. Been following you thread and admiring it for hours. Now I just need to get me a MIG and than I'm all over this baby

cuffs with some play, lol......
Thanks:) did You take a look at the vids uploaded later in the the thread. The thing that´s quite fascinating me is, that it´s a flawlessly well running precision instrument. Set the time when I got it and that´s it.

Used the bright sunlight to have a nice shot at the vintage hands and dial.

Apparently you are wearing the ship's clock out of a real sub.
