Russian MakTanm Aviator I

I spotted this watch this morning on ebay and wondered if anyone had any experience with either the Aviator I or the MakTanm brand. Here is their photo of the watch. From what I understand it is a sister company to Poljot. I think the movement is a manual one. Just wondering. Cheers, Bill P.

Shortly after this post I ordered the MakTime Aviator I. It has been a part of my watch rotation for the past several weeks now. I tried it first on a black NATO strap and then settled on a Di-Modell alligator grain leather strap with a Hadley Roma deployant.

I really like the looks and feel of the watch. While the lume is not the greatest, it is OK. I think the MakTime Aviator I is a nice watch for the money. Cheers, Bill P.

Greg, not sure what MakTime means, but here is a thread with information on the brand. I am enjoying my watch and wear it often. Cheers, Bill P.

MakTaim means MacTime, spoken phonetically in Russian.
