Well, that's a hard question. I have quite many Russian watches, they are gorgeous and fun. I would like to have the idea of separating the war from wearing these timepieces.

BUT there's always a second thought in me when I put them on. Especially because I live in a country (Hungary) which is considered pro-Russian and getting more and more anti-democratic. Even though I have no friend/family member/ acquaintances who aligns with my country's views, we live here silently and we are minority apparently. I feel shame being Hungarian.

17 камней = 17 stones

1 мчз им. кирова = Первый московский часовой завод им. кирова= the first Moskow watch factory in Kirov
