I am still waiting for a bunch of Ukrainians to get together and start their own watch brand.

Here is another Ukranian build. I know that the Ukranian watches are not always welcome, but I have to say that I would wear this watch.

i mostly wanted this to have for spare parts now that i have 2 A. Schild - cal.190 builds...anyone ( @KpOy ) think there is reason to believe Radium was used in the paint? Seller has no clue, but tells me it may be from early 1900's but tells me he's been wheelin'n'dealing for decades with old clocks and has not keeled over yet :/

i might do the daylight/dark test first...then convince some colleagues to let me use their lab Geiger counter to make sure.

Why not?

Some collectors and builders have criticized them for trying to pass builds as originals. I have heard others disapproving of their designs. Who knows? Can't please everyone.
Bottom line, I have seen a lot of nice builds from Ukraine.

I'd be shocked if its NOT radium. The only way it isn't would be if somebody has redone the lume at some point.
