Russian Wrist Watches and Pocket Watches

Most people will be unaware of the history and quality of Russian watches. Russian watches are certainly not as well known as Swiss watches, yet their popularity is growing around the world as highly distinguished and respected Russian brands become better distributed and more widely available.

We have a small selection of very nice models to choose from, which are typical of what you can expect from a Russian watch. They are strong and functional without being overly cosmetic or ornate, so if you like diver, aviator or military-style watches, you will probably like Russian watches.

Russia is by no means new to watchmaking. It has a rich history of manufacturing mechanical watches that dates back more than eighty years. Some models are second world war designs that are still being manufactured to this day. Most Russian watches use mechanical jeweled movements (not quartz), yet are priced at a fraction of similar western designer watches. Knowledgable watchbuyers consider this to be outstanding value for a quality mechanical watch.
