Sturmanskie Sputnik Heritage. Do you own any Russian watches?
A friend came by today to pick up a custom-made strap for his Sturmanskie Sputnik Heritage. It's a watch I never knew existed until a week ago. It's an interesting-looking piece, with a highlight being a seconds hand disk featuring an image of Sputnik, the first artificial Earth satellite, rotating around the picture of Earth found on the dial. Inside the 40mm case is a manual-winding Poljot 2609 movement. It's a limited edition of 2000 pieces.

No. But I'm considering Ukrainian watches. Screw Russia!
I've got a load of Vostoks, but the one I really want is this:
