I’m not a proper “watch guy,” because I don’t have the money for it, but I’ve built up a little connection of Soviet mechanical watches, several of them space-themed. It’s a really fun way to dip into that hobby.
I’m also not a proper “watch guy”. I have one watch I wear daily and two vintage watches that don’t run very well and I don’t have the $$ to repair so they sit in a drawer.
Soviet watches are a great rabbit hole. Thankfully, I’ve managed to stay on the sidelines for the most part. I do have a CCCP automatic that will only keep time for more than one day if I wind it, but that’s it. There are a whole bunch of interesting designs out there though.
