While this is a Russian 1950's Submariners Watch, it was originally designed by an American Watch Company called Hampden, from Camden, Ohio. The watch is in its original condition and when we purchased it was still in its original box.
This is a "vault find" watch, it has been locked up for nearly 75 years, which means it needs a service. We will service it for you as part of the purchase price before it is shipped out to you. This will delay shipping for a few days of course.
Note the size of this watch, it is very large as it was intended to be worn over a wetsuit.
