Poljot Sthurmanskie. The USSR Pilot Chronograph.

Sthurmanskie means "navigator" in Russian. The movement is a hand-wound Poljot P3133, which is a version of the Valjoux 7734. The soviets bought the remains of the assembly line in 1978 and modified the movement. Great power reserve. A cool chronograph with a second timezone bezel ( I keep mine on Moscow time. :yeah: )

Don't drink and fly.. The movement. 23 jewels. The Valjoux 7734 had only 17.

The cogwheel for rotation of the inner bezel. Soviet Air force badge.

There was also a Navy version of this, called "Okeah" (Ocean)

This is one of my early purchases from Howard Marx at westcoasttime- the O&W Mirage Mark III

I think of this watch as an updated version of the Breguet Type XX- the one from the late 60's early 70's with the V725 flyback movement

Now if I could just figure out how to build a rep of the old Breguet Type XX!
