Russian Poljot movements are well known for thier swiss-approaching quality. Why? The swiss machinery and the swiss know-how were combined by the Russians with thier legendary practical thinking and historical need for real precision. Today the Poljot knowlege and movement production is in the trustworthy hands of the MakTime Watch Factory in Moscow, Russia. The Factory is owned and opperated by Mr. Aleksandr Makarov. A man whose intrest not only lies in the heritage of russian horology but also in his over 400 Russian employes. A real big challenge today.

We support Mr. Makarov in his dream to keep the Russian horology alive. MakTime is producing movements for us and assembles them in our watches. The future will tell if we might see the biggest challenge and invention of MakTime in one of our future models, the mechanical “automatic” chronograph. We know it‘s a project on a side track and mainly needs capital. Otherwise we really hope MakTime succeeds with this vision… Time has proven that the russian watch industry is always good for inventions and surprises.
