This is an original Soviet-era Poljot “Cosmos” wristwatch, a distinctive mechanical timepiece produced by the First Moscow Watch Factory during the late 1960s–1970s. The design features a silver sunburst dial with applied dagger indices and a central-pointer date indicator — a hallmark of the Cosmos range — with the date tracked around the edge and indicated by a slender additional hand. The dial is signed “Poljot” with “23 Jewels” beneath, and the watch is mounted in a gold-tone case paired with a classic brown leather strap.
Under the hood is the Poljot caliber 2628H, a manual-wind movement with 23 jewels that combines timekeeping with a sophisticated pointer-date complication. This movement was one of the more advanced Soviet designs of its era, valued for its reliability and the added mechanical complexity of the date ring system. The Cosmos model is named in celebration of early Soviet space achievements and sits among the more collectible civilian Poljot wristwatches due to its combination of functional sophistication and historical resonance within USSR watchmaking.
Good vintage condition. Dial and hands show light patina consistent with age. Case has minor surface wear and faint marks; the crystal shows small signs of use. Leather strap is a quality replacement.
