    The Russian Chat Thread 2018



    Well been thinking new year why not a new chat thread so 2018 hmmm what new things will we see on the old Russian watch front Strela link to the petrodvorets watches so good as any place to start the thread off

    As always Ismy

    p.s I won't have this one sticky as some times I feel post get missed as it gets overlooked some times being at top I do it alot myself. I see what new post their is on the thread list but forget to check the sticky's so if it moves up and down the thread list. it will be an easy way to see new post or that is my thought

    depends seem's you got the limited range which used recondition slave movement which are really pricey ..then you have the one's with the Japanese movements which are still plus £200 but can be had on sale from tk max for like £50 / £60 and have also seen some tacky quartz with that name on but not sure it's them making them which are well over priced for what they are so yeah look nice if you don't look to close maybe like invicta in some ways

    looks like I was about right looking at the links :

    but had some vintage cccp in my time too ..

    some are nice looking but the whole thing of being made in hk and Japanese movements leaves a bad taste in my mouth really as a making money out of the Russia name and look does not seem very communism to me

    same as the vostok europe made in Lithuania and again with Japanese movements

    Don't know why P I dropped the brand name, or whether sold. Some of theirs were under the clicking finger many times. Julian had many a few years ago.
    Now just a brand.

    whats our take on this I think it a bit of b.s when you read it and the price they want it's just a copy of a copy as far as I am concerned not that much thought as gone in to really surely ? it just TWEAK of what already exist with a price tag three times of what one would cost after the mod was done as parts are there to be had all over the bay
