Description

The Poljot marine chronometer (most famously known as the Soviet-era 6MX model) is a high-precision mechanical timekeeper built by the First Moscow Watch Factory (‘Kirov’ / Poljot)

This is a lovely 56hr model with white circular dial and Arabic Numerals with power reserve and seconds indicator to the dial.

This impressive fusee driven marine chronometer was made in the USSR by Poljot during the mid 20th century. The high precision instrument features a jewelled movement with a spring detent escapement.

This chronometer is housed in a traditional brass bound mahogany box with carrying handles and an inner glass lid. Comes with its own deck box.
