Poljot Watches History
Poljot in translation from Russian means Flight.
Poljot watches history is connected with the history of Russian and Soviet aviation.
All Soviet battle airplanes were completed with airborne clocks made in the
1-st Moscow Watch Factory from 1930-s. The pilots and navigators of military
aviation could not fly without a wristwatch with "The 1-st Kirov MWF" mark and
later with "Poljot" mark.
Poljot watches were taken into the first space
flight in the history of man on April 12 1961 by Yuriy Alekseevich Gagarin.
It was the model "Shturmanskie" (Navigator's). Poljot watch successfully
sustained the space trial. The staff of the enterprise maintained close contacts
with the cosmonauts: during the time in space our cosmonauts observed the factories
devices of time. Poljot watches were taken to space flights by astronauts from
France, Russia, Germany, Ukraine, and set a record in duration of a space flight
together with V.V. Poljakov.
Poljot watches possess the heightened reliability,
accuracy of the run, durability of clock-works. Thanks to the modern classic
design which is capable to satisfy tastes of the most refined buyers, high quality
of production, perfectly organized service and reasonable prices, Poljot watches
won the recognition not only at the Russian watch market but also at the foreign
ones. The high level of technological development, design and the high quality

the President of Russia has chosen a Poljot watch 3133 as a government award
