watches?

[El Timbo]

are they as good as a Rolex or Omega for diving? Just curious.i like to collect fintage watches.

They are as waterproof but the bezels are bi directional - which makes them less suitable for serious diving.

I'll post pics of some of my other soviet vintage watches.

This is a Poljot from the 1970s - I love that simple classic look.

I also like the cartier tank when it comes to classic watch design but thats another price class.

I've got a Movado from the 50s looks kind of like that.

I wasn't aware Russians made nice watches.i mostly know about Swiss and Japanese watches.if I could pick one watch it would be an Omega or Tag hauer

A Sekonda branded Luch with the 3mm thin 2209 gold plated movement from the 60s/70s - I have a few of these 2209s made by Luch and Poljot.

Konstantin Chaykin is a Russian watchmaker and even better clockmaker whose technical brilliance and creativity leave me speechless. Most recently he finished a mind-blowing clock with a first-ever hours display that employs a chain wrapped around a barrel to make roman numerals https://usa.watchpro.com/mastering-extraordinary-table-clocks-with-konstantin-chaykin/

I use my cell phone as a watch, which means I often look at my cell phone when I'm stuck in traffic - which is technically illegal in some places.

I was recently gifted a "Santos Dumont" Cartier. We suspect it's a knock off, but it is a nice looking watch none-the less. Was surprised to learn Cartier uses quartz movement and not mechanical.

Cool to come across this thread too, have always been a fan of well made time pieces, not something that seems very common with people these days.

Heh, Cartier huh? Don't see those too often.im gonna go to the dark side and buy a fake rolex.they seem to have good movements for fakes so it's worth it to me.

I'm just doing my own time coksucker.

Whoa whoa,hold on dude.i can tell you right now if it's fake.if you can hear a battery or ticking it's probably fake.swiss watches generally don't use batteries unless they are low end.Cartier is definitely not low end.but I'm only using speculation.id rather not know my $25000 watch is fake.
