What time is it? Watches and horology

On the bay atm, looks kinda swish, I think. Any idea what is it worth?

Will look lovely with a rubber strap.

Harrong - 22mm straps? I have an unused Seiko rubber divers strap that would fit the bill.

^That would be epic Aroogah.
I will have to measure it and get back to you,
It will be early next week when I am back at the other house to measure.

I like the design, I have heard of Poljot vaugley before but cannot remember how.

No idea of value, soz

Edit: Stalin factory, thats how I have heard of it!

Coolio.

tv dials are not that popular so it should be at the cheaper end of the poljot scale. i like it but then i like tv dials. you should go for leather i have a leather strap on my tissot tuning fork same as this shape but gold plated.

this might, most likely is, a pea but this thing is handy if you are looking to buy. Pleny of seiko in there too:

^that is fucking awesome...

i cannot stand watch forums...

My cute little Rotary has gone back to the watch repairer for the third time (on the seller's dime, of course)... It's fixed now but the date wheel is stuck, seller thought he'd better check it before sending it out this time... I should get it back in a day or two, can't wait... Wanna get the rally strap on it and go for a ride in BRM's MG... ;]

B that tool is amazing. thanks.

TS i can picture it. either that or sitting outside a cafe in monaco or white jump suit and helmet at silverstone.

Tenderloin, thats the one I've got... its actually not a bad beater.

Unrelated, I dropped my SKX007 down the stairs and it seems to be running a few minutes quick a week later. Will keep an eye on it and will let it rest on its side rather than face-up which seems to regulate how it gains...

What is it with you guys? When I started lurking this thread I hated the look of diver's watches. Now I find myself lusting for one of these Seiko numbers. I even want to put it on a grey zulu strap for christ's sake.

Just got this off a bloke in Porto.

This watch is built like a tank and weights like one. It's an homage to the Soviet rocket lunching system Energia, the most powerful space launcher created with a capacity to get 100 metric tons on Earth's low orbit.

Dimensions: 44mm case (without crown), 50mm lug to lug, 15mm thick. The bracelet is a massive 25mm tank track (no, not really), 5mm thick with a double folding clasp (so no micro-adjustment). The whole watch weights 250g but it's more comfortable to wear than my Steinhart Ocean 1.

Movement: custom made Vostok 2441 32 jewels automatic movement. It only exists on the Vostok-Europe Energia models and it's built according to much higher standards of Vostok-Europe, so it's a much better movement than the regular Russian Vostoks.

General info: the case and bracelet have a mixture of brushed and polished areas. The crown is a pull out crown and it's a 5ATM WR watch. Lume is superluminova but it's not all that great. It's a bit like the superluminova C1 on the Steinhart Ocean 1.

Comes with everything: box, papers, extra links and hang-tag. It has 2 year warrant and it was bought by me on August this year, so plenty of warranty left.

I like it. How much was it?

Space-a-licious hippy. TS is jealous because he has weedy wrists.

His girly arms would snap off just trying to hoist it from the case.

waste of good steel

That is the Geoff Woad of watches.

Look at the size of the fucker.

It's only 44mm. My Steinhart is bigger. The bracelet makes it look massive though. I love the bracelet on this.

Wearing my William Pogue Seiko chrono today until I get another link put into the Vostok.

Pffff! My Ollech & Wajs Pilot is 46mm wide (not including crown)... Your 'watch' is puny...
