Comrades,
I have been looking for this watch for quite a while now but every time it came up somewhere the prices were ridiculous. Now I finally found one for a good price and it arrived this morning. It is a Slava dual time zone watch which keeps Moscow time on the left dial and the present time on the right dial.
I must say, it looks so much better than I expected from the sellers pictures. The condition is far from perfect but in my eyes it is pretty decent, it keeps the essence of the watch in my opinion and all the writings are perfectly readable. Anyway, it surely is one of my most interesting watches.
As you might know this Slava uses two 1601 ladies watch movements, and the timekeeping of this example is quite impressive. It lost less than a minute over 24 hours, although the left movement one lost a little bit more than the right one.
Let me know what you guys think!:-d
