• Having to send my Poljot Sturmanskie Zivil back to Germany for repairs (under warranty) for the second time in under a year.

    The Russian 3133 movement is supposed to be one of the most agriculturally tank-like movements ever.

    Still, it's a lovely looking watch when it works, and I do get to send it off the the fabulously named Julian Kampmann again.

    Oh and my Chinese Rodina Nomos copy I bought to tide me over the last time this went back to Germany is still running absolutely perfectly.
