Poljot Shturmanskie Chronograph

This is a Poljot Shturmanskie Chronograph. It features the legendary Poljot 3133 watch movement which was derived from a Swiss movement and developed during the Soviet era for use by the Soviet air force. This watch was likely built after the Soviet period but with the same parts and on the same machinery. This watch is shock protected and features some water resistance. Soviet designed watches, especially Poljot watches are known for their resilience due to their simplicity. Soviet watch designers often employed creative approaches to improving watches since they lacked the funding and technology to use more elaborate methods.
