The watch has a Russian 18 jewel hand-winding movement, Poljot 2812.1. Sekonda and Poljot are the same company but Sekonda was the brand name used for the British market.
The watch measures 36mm diameter excluding the crowns and the lugs. The case is chrome plated, the front and sides are in good condition. The case back is stainless steel, there is one scratch across the back and other lighter smaller scratches.
The lens has a light 3mm scratch but otherwise is in good condition, as is the signed dial with original hands, seconds sweep and alarm hand. The alarm is set by pulling out the top crown and turning anti-clockwise so the alarm hand moves backwards. It is then pushed back in and wound until resistance is felt.
A new leather strap has been fitted.
The watch comes in a new presentation box.
