CCCP Automatic Diver Style Wristwatch

This is a contemporary automatic wrist watch bearing the 'CCCP' brand name, designed with a classic diver's aesthetic. The piece features a robust brushed stainless steel case equipped with a screw-down crown and a unidirectional rotating bezel. The bezel exhibits a two-tone 'Kermit' style color scheme, with a green aluminum insert for the zero-to-fifteen-minute track and black for the remainder. The dark green sunray dial is marked with applied luminescent baton indices and prominently displays the 'CCCP' logo with four stars. Cyrillic text at the top and bottom of the dial indicates water resistance and its automatic movement status. A notable design element is the bright yellow hour hand, which provides a sharp contrast against the white minute and second hands. The watch is mounted on a matching three-link Oyster-style stainless steel bracelet with a folding clasp. The condition appears to be used but good; there are visible surface scratches and 'desk diving' marks on the bezel edge and bracelet links, particularly near the lugs, suggesting regular wear. The crystal appears clear but may have minor micro-abrasions consistent with its age. This watch represents a modern lifestyle brand that draws inspiration from Soviet-era design motifs rather than being a vintage military artifact.

I have completed a visual assessment of the CCCP modern automatic diver-style wristwatch. My examination confirms this is a contemporary lifestyle piece produced under the CCCP brand (associated with the Dartmouth Brands group) rather than a vintage Soviet-era military issued timepiece. The use of a 'Kermit' style bezel and a sunray dial pattern aligns with modern 'homage' design trends. The condition is noted as 'fair' to 'good' due to significant 'desk diving' marks on the bezel edge and bracelet links, particularly at the lugs, which suggests frequent use and decreases value compared to a mint or new-old-stock example. Based on current secondary market trends for mid-tier lifestyle brands utilizing Miyota or Seiko movements, demand remains modest. This brand does not hold the collector prestige of Vostok or Poljot, as it lacks historical provenance. The estimate reflects the saturation of the affordable automatic diver market. Limitation Note: While the visual markers suggest a genuine modern CCCP timepiece, I cannot verify the specific caliber of the movement or its mechanical health without opening the case back. A physical inspection would be required to assess the integrity of the water seals and to ensure the automatic winding rotor and escapement are functioning within acceptable tolerances. Documentation of purchase or service history would also provide more certainty regarding its provenance.
