1980s Poljot (translates to “Flight”) alarm watch with a 2612.1 manual wind movement
Just arrived from Ukraine a few days ago. Export model with Latin dial. 10 AU gold plated brass case. It’s in pretty good shape for its age; it has only a few minor defects.
This is the only Soviet watch I’ve come across that has lume, aside from the models designed for military use. The lume doesn’t last very long and isn’t very bright, but something is better than nothing I suppose.

Not to many of them in good condition anymore unfortunately. Very nice watches imo.

Yeah like I said. Something is better than nothing.
Great looking -wow! Love it. @Eliminator had me digging through my old watchbox and I went down a rabbit hole of my Russian watches (thx brother a good time killer tonight)! Grabbed my Poljot Alarm square and I always get a kick out of the retro sounding alarm. Instant smile when that activates and buzzes like a bee. I also switched a strap or two tonight. Time well spent with a glass of wine and a strap tool. Thx guys, great topic!

Nice watches! Nice to see a real Big Zero as well. More fakes than real ones out there.

Thx Matt! This "Kermit" Puljot was also found in the bottom of my watch box in great running condition. 37mm, 17jewels, tonneau gold case, Green croc strap. You'll appreciate it, enjoy my friend.
