Poljot Oversize, Men’s Manual Wind Vintage Watch, 1981
A brown gradient dial with bright green hour accents gives this 1981 Poljot Oversize an expressive appearance. The 37 mm rounded-square case surrounds a smaller shaped dial opening, with a day-date display at 3 o’clock. This hand-wound watch carries a 17 JEWELS signature and is fitted with a new tan-brown leather strap.
Brown Gradient Dial and Green Hour Accents
The dial moves from a lighter copper-brown tone in the upper half toward deeper brown at the lower edge. Applied rectangular markers surround a pale printed minute track, accompanied by bright green circular plots at several hours. POLJOT and 17 JEWELS appear across the central area, with MADE IN USSR at the lower edge.
The framed aperture at 3 o’clock displays the weekday and numerical date together. Broad pale hour and minute hands have sharply tapered angular forms, while a slender central seconds hand reaches toward the outer track. Visible age-related character remains on the dial, which presents clearly.
The green plots add color to the brown dial; their current luminous performance is not confirmed.
TV-Shaped Case with Broad Shoulders
The silver-tone exterior has a rounded-square outline with thick shoulders around the shaped crystal and dial opening. Its broad brushed upper surface contrasts with a smoother polished perimeter. The pronounced difference between case size and dial area gives the watch its TV-shaped profile.
The case measures 37 mm across and 45 mm lug to lug, with an 18 mm strap connection. Normal age-related marks and surface wear remain visible. The exact case material is not confirmed.
A compact ridged crown at 3 o’clock provides a grip for winding and setting without interrupting the broad outline. No clearly legible crown signature is visible.
Hand-Wound Movement and New Tan Leather
The movement is manual wind, with the 17-jewel specification stated on the dial. Its exact caliber designation is not confirmed. The day-date display adds a useful calendar to the central time indications, while regular hand winding forms part of ownership.
The new tan-brown leather strap has a textured surface and an adjustable fit. Its warm color follows the copper and brown dial tones, contrasting with the silver-tone case. It is a replacement strap, separate from the original watch components.
The MADE IN USSR marking identifies the watch’s Soviet manufacture. The watch is fully serviced and fully operational, with its original watch components retained. It is supplied with a 12-month warranty and no box or papers.
