Strela Chronograph 42mm caliber Poljot 3133 - last pieces!

My favorites from Russia : The STRELA chronographs belong to the finest and most classic watches made in Russia! 

Strela CO42CYB - Cosmos Chronograph with russian caliber Poljot 3133, black cyrillic dial, sapphire crystal and 42mm diameter!

 
In the 50´s to 70's Poljot produced the famous Strela  "column wheel"  chronographs with the caliber 3017.
The actual produced Strelas are powered by the Poljot caliber 3133 which also becomes rare now and these new Strelas honour their famous predecessors !

This Strela Chronograph Nr. CO42CYB has the name "Cosmos" - it has a massive,  brushed stainless steel case with a polished bezel, polished bandconnections and pushers/crown.  The detailled and perfectly finished watchcase has a diameter of 42mm ( with crown  44.8 mm ), a height of 14 mm , a weight of 90 grams incl. leather strap and a bandwidth of 22mm complete lug-to-lug width is 51mm.

The baguette-shaped pushers and the gracile crown resemble exactly the old Strela models.

A slightly curved, scratch-resistant sapphire glass provides a clear view on the black Strela dial with cyrillic text.  The dial of this Version CO42CYB  "Cosmos" is completely labeled in cyrillic  and shows a tachymeter scale, a telemeter scale and very original luminous Strela-hands and luminous indexes. The date is positioned between the numbers "4" and "5" .

The polished crystal back is screwed, inscribed in cyrillic on the side of the glass and engraved with the serial number.

Very special: Poljot caliber 3133  with blue screws !  This robust  Poljot 3133  manual winding caliber has 23 jewels, 21.600 halfrotations/hour , shock protection , and approximately 48 hours power reserve.

The models of the 60's were manufactured under the name Poljot , Sekonda and Strela - Poljot once differed between better watches ( "Class1" ) for the Export-market and the watches for the sale within the Soviet Union. Nowadays there is no such difference, but they  remind on this historical fact by using the "Class 1" signature on these new watches.  In this version in cyrillic under the word  "chronograph ".
 
This watch comes with  watchbox and Strela strap.

Delivery is including 2 additional high quality RIOS1931 leather straps, Nr. 9010SW Louisiana Crocodile Calf  in black and  Nr. 9010BF Montana Buffalo in black.
