About this product
Product Information
Twentieth century Russian wristwatches are too costly for many native buyers, but they are still inexpensive for Western Collectors, and are becoming extremely popular. Watch faces commemorate all the great moments of Russian and Soviet history-from Yuri Gagarin's space flight to the Summit meeting between Gorbachev and George Bush-and celebrate Russian culture with images of native costumes from Chechnya to the Ukraine.Collectors have long clamored for a definitive reference and this new book will satisfy even the most avid enthusiast, with photographs of over 500 watches manufactured in Russia and the USSR during the second half of this century, and explanations of their styles, workings, and manufacturers. Poljot, Wostok, and Slava wristwatches are covered, along with a sampling of pocket watches, deck watches, and marine chronometers. This book is a must for serious collectors in the growing field of Russian timekeepers.

Poor quality counterfeit of the original text. The images are all black blobs as they are taken from a photocopy of the original book. Likely when the seller used a photocopier in a library where they copied the book using the photocopier in the library. I took a photo of the old original book to show how they copied it, but the original had a green cover and was bound, not a DIY spiral bound booklet like the seller is selling.
