My Soviet watch collection is complete… For now

This has been a really enjoyable journey. After a couple years and a lot of research I believe my collection Soviet/ Russian watches is complete, for now. As a guy who grew up in the 80s in the Cold War era, there’s something that just drew me to them. before you get your panties in a bunch, most of the watches were purchased through eBay dealers based in Ukraine. Even picked up a nice Copernicus from my wife so we each have one. To me these low quality curiously designed watches just hit a certain spot not for everyone but I really enjoyed it. Hope you do too.

This crazy hobby we all love has so many paths … yours is definitely one of the less traveled. I think it’s badass, unique and inspiring 🤙👏👍❤️

That's a nice set. It's quite difficult to stop collecting Russian watches, they have many interesting designs.

Definitely on my list. Got a really sweet looking watch there buddy in the Russian wash box. It’s a one in one out policy so someone’s gotta go for that chronograph probably the UFO. thanks for checking in on my post.

That is a superb collection. A Big Zero and pulsometer, and all in Cyrillic, even better. I'm looking to add a Slava 2427 Fridge to my collection. Russian vintage watches are great to collect

Thanks for the nice words. This is not a promotion of this seller. I always have my eye out for a good find. Just happened to come across it the other day.

There’s a certain chronograph that I have been chasing down. I just have to find someone who’s willing to part with it for a modified Seco five.
