Description

The Vostok-Europe Expedition North Pole-1 Chronograph Watch (6S21-595B645) is a limited edition timepiece, meticulously handcrafted in Lithuania with only 3000 units produced. This watch is inspired by the groundbreaking North Pole-1, the first drifting station that played a crucial role in the scientific exploration of the Polar areas. Commencing its journey on June 6, 1937, close to the North Pole, the station embarked on a remarkable 9-month expedition, covering 2,850 kilometers on an ice floe, and concluded its groundbreaking journey on February 19, 1938.

Reflecting the resilience and pioneering essence of the North Pole-1 expedition, this watch is designed to withstand extreme conditions, equipped with several notable features:

**Case and Build:**
- The watch features a robust 47.3×17 mm case, offering a commanding presence on the wrist.
- Crafted from 316L stainless steel, the case is plated with grade-A PVD for added durability and a refined finish.
- It includes a screw-down crown, enhancing the water resistance and overall sturdiness of the watch.
- The watch face is protected by a 3.5mm thick K1 crystal with an anti-reflective coating, providing clear visibility under various lighting conditions.
- The hands and dial are treated with Super Luminova, ensuring excellent legibility in low-light environments.

**Water Resistance and Movement:**
- With a water resistance of up to 20 ATM (200 meters), this watch is suitable for professional marine activity, serious surface water sports, and skin diving.
- The timepiece operates on the Miyota 6S21 Quartz movement, a reliable and accurate mechanical-quartz movement from SII, known for its precision in timekeeping.

**Strap Options:**
- The watch is paired with a genuine leather strap, offering both comfort and elegance.
- Alternatives include a silicon strap or a metal bracelet, allowing for versatility in style and use, catering to different preferences and occasions.

**Chronograph Functionality:**
- The 6S21 mechanical-quartz movement also endows the watch with chronograph features, adding functionality for timing events with precision and ease.

The Vostok-Europe Expedition North Pole-1 Chronograph Watch is more than just a timekeeper; it's a piece of history that embodies the spirit of adventure and human endurance. Its robust construction, combined with its sophisticated design, makes it a prized possession for watch collectors, adventurers, and anyone who appreciates a watch with a rich historical narrative and exceptional functionality.
