A higher-grade Russian movement. This watch movement originates from the 1960's, and is at a size where it remains subtle but simultaneously eye-catching. It is polished over with a beautiful light-catching "GENEVA STRIPES" - a Swiss technique used by Russian horologists to give their watches a decorative and subtle finish.
