    Watch ID Assistance - Cosmonaut Oleg Atkov - 1984

    Here's cosmonaut and cardiologist Atkov shortly after touchdown on Soyuz T-11, having spent an epic 237 day stay on Salyut 7 in 1984.

    In the pre-boarding photographs he's seen wearing a distinctive Poljot 'stadium' watch, but what is on his wrist here?

    I'm thinking possibly an Elektronika LCD but I can't find one with these striking colours in a search. Any ideas?

    I'd be hedging my bets on exactly what you said, an Elektronica.

    But of course he would have had access to Western stuff, so could be from the usual suspects.

    I've only got these 2 catalogues but it doesn't seem to be in either:

    Try looking up Sekonda and Kamerton LCD watches too.

    Many thanks, I've received a similar Elektronika 5 suggestion by PM which is in a more angular case and looks a bit closer. The catalogues are very useful resources.
