In Response To: Re: Always worth to refurbish vintage ()

Hi Common Man

The poljot 3133 is based on the valjoux 7733, please see enclosed pic

The valjoux 3133 isn't a great quality movement (finish is very mediocre and build quality is mediocre if not poor) and neither it is a stunning or very good timekeeper like its cousins the valjoux 7734,7733,7736,7740,7760 and 7765 who were never accurate movements as compared to the lemania 1873 or 1281 powered watches.
I always avoided russian watches in general, I prefer a swiss brand that I know and whose movements are of the highest quality. But those are my personal tastes.
