Poljot Alarm, Cal. 2612.1, Men’s Manual Wind Dress Vintage Watch, 1979
Twin fluted crowns and an arrow-tipped alarm hand distinguish this Poljot Alarm watch from 1979, powered by manual caliber 2612.1. The men's model has a cream-beige Arabic dial with an inner alarm scale and MADE IN USSR signature. Its polished gold-plated cushion case measures 37 mm, with short lugs giving the mechanical alarm watch compact proportions.
Cream Arabic dial and alarm scale
The dial retains its original finish, with bold printed Arabic numerals, a peripheral minute track and a dedicated inner alarm scale. The 18 jewels marking appears alongside the balanced typography, and the MADE IN USSR signature identifies its Soviet period.
Gold dauphine hour and minute hands have black inlays for contrast. A slender central seconds hand accompanies the arrow-tipped alarm hand, which shows the selected alarm time on the inner scale. Their different forms keep the main time and alarm indications distinguishable.
Cushion case and two independent controls
The gold-plated cushion case combines soft edges with polished surfaces. Its 37 mm size and short lugs give the head a measured presence, while the warm case finish continues the gold tone of the main hands.
The fluted upper crown at 2 controls alarm engagement and setting. The lower crown at 4 provides manual winding and time setting. Separating those roles gives direct access to the alarm without combining its adjustment with the main time controls.
Caliber 2612.1 and its spring-driven alarm
The manual-wind watch uses Poljot caliber 2612.1, which has 18 jewels and a nominal beat rate of 18,000 vibrations per hour, or 2.5 Hz. Separate barrels supply the timekeeping train and the spring-driven alarm, allowing them to be wound independently. The mechanical alarm has the characteristic audible tone of this caliber.
The Poljot Alarm belongs to the First Moscow Watch Factory's Soviet mechanical production. Its cushion shape combines the softer case forms of watches from the late 1970s with the practical alarm mechanism, keeping the watch's visual design and functionality closely connected.
This used watch is in excellent vintage condition, with its original dial, hands and case preserved. It is fully serviced and fully operational, including the alarm function, and comes with a 12-month warranty. Worldwide shipping is available.
