And not just any Poljot 3133 chrono...
... but one that says on the back, "From Head of Military Counter Intelligence"!
I leave the rest to your imagination ))
I wonder if this watch has a bit of history.... but now let's proceed to the movement.
A Poljot 3133 movement (I wrote a lot about it in some earlier posts, use search) with a proper Poljot stamp (not later MakTime).
But to re-cap, I'll just say that the watch is a chronograph using the Poljot (/MakTime) 3133 movement.
And a chronograph (not to confuse with chronometer) is basically a watch
with a stopwatch (which is a "complication").
So, it has a center
stopwatch hand, a small seconds hand at 9 o'clock and a 30-minute
counter at 3 o'clock and also a date at 6 o'clock.
The power reserve is very good almost up to 70 hours on full winding.
And it is very pleasant and easy to wind.
Also, there is a quick (one of the quickest) date change mechanisms whereby you rotate the hands backwards from 1:00 to 23:00 o'clock.
Maybe some experts will see something or read something into this movement. To me, it looks OK.
And it works so far (admittedly it's the first day I have had it).
I am a happy bunny this New Year eve!
The rest stones are of course rubies (artificially grown) as per tradition in watch-making and there are 23 of them (23 jewels).
And it's just in time for massive New Year ablutions!
