    **** Lets talk alarms ****



    Well have always loved the russian alarm watch got a Poljot one similar to the one above but never worked from the day I had it knew it when I bought it thought simple fix ( at the time crowns would not go in right they had been swapped over so the slightly shorter one was going in but causing the other not to fit right.. fix that but had other issues ) so as it is so good looking cosmetically and look like a sound movement and in general good condition thinking need's a dam good service if it's been around since the mid 70's / 80's ...





    My thought is we don't get to see them enough and sure we have them in our collections the one I put up are the vintage pieces but happy to see old all the way through to new be fun to see how they change over time or not in some of the poljot/sekonda ones


    As always Ismy
    Just saw the agar never realize they did them as alarm to

    I would say when the alarm does go off it frightens the crap out of me every time.

    Lost the top notes. Can only hear a Moli up close
    A Parni whizzy rotor could be heard though

    Any way this is an alarm
