My advice is to go to MW branch better, cos the boss is there most of the time.

the outlet at wisma is operated by another partner/boss......

bro, went to Wisma outlet a number of times.. I don't think its a partner/boss though... The lady I spoke to is definitely not his wife as I've met her a couple of times at MW. But I know he does pop by occassionally.

can you believe that yr last statement was exactly what a watch dealer told me as well?

from i learnt from WUS forums, some russian watches actually use chinese seagull movement, not sure if there's any truth in it but can read more from WUS if anyone's interested. Not trying to offend any russian watch lovers though.

Alot of watches of various nationalities use the seagull movement. Not everyone is as ngiao as the swiss... But i dun see why the russians need to do that, given that their own movements are cheap enough and in sufficient supply.

I dun really like the styling of their watch cases, still prefer the german/swiss/british/american style

Ah, Sugi. He's a nice guy and I meet him at "russian watch" socials a friend of mine organizes occasionally.

I've known russian watches long before I've known rolex. The primary base movement used in russian watches is the Poljot-3133, which has stopped production but remains available for now. This was based on an old Valjoux design the Russians bought from the Swiss in th 1950s .

If you want to buy more "collectible" poljot pieces , buy those with a 3133 and not the newer China made movements.

This is one of my PI, Poljot Strela with P3133 movement

[jazz_samz]

Nice watch there Hary.. u seem to have a nice collection there eh??

[melfiz]

i like de movement...not many watches carry such movement nowadays..

[Hary]

Thanks, actually 3133 is not so rare. Many conventional Chronos use P3133. It's a workshorse movement, a Valjoux 7734 based movement. I own this watch for many years and it's running strong and very accurate.

This one is also my old time favourite, Poljot Signal (alarm). I bought it together with my Strela many years back. Both are now in my wife's possesion

[melfiz]

nice watch... way to go bro..

I just got my macro lens, still learning how to use it. As first 'victim', here is the close-up picture of P3133. Not pretty from closer look, but it's one of my favourite movement in terms of reliability
