Men’s Vostok Europe Lunochod-2 Chrono Line 6S21/620E278 watch belongs to the Lunochod-2 model series. Lunochod-2, launched by Luna 21 (15 January 1973), worked for 4.5 months, took around 80,000 images and travelled 37 km. The Lunokhod 2 held the record for the longest range on an extraterrestrial body until 2004, when it was surpassed by the Oportunity vehicle.
The case of the Vostok Europe Lunochod-2 Chrono Line 6S21/620E278 is made of stainless steel with a blue PVD finish. Inside is a battery-operated Japanese Miyota 6S21 movement. At the 6 position is a handy date display. The watch is equipped with a stopwatch function, where the central seconds hand belongs to the stopwatch and at position 9 we find the minute counter. Furthermore, the watch has a unidirectional rotating lunette and a helium valve.
The dial is protected by a mineral hardened glass with anti-reflective treatment. A total of 15 tritium capsules ensure perfect readability in the dark. They can be found on the indices and the minute and hour hands. Thanks to its 49 mm diameter, it will be the ideal choice for fans of larger watches.
The water resistance of the Lunochod-2 Chrono Line 6S21/620E278 is set at 30 ATM and is supported by a screw-down crown. In addition to the silicone strap, a spare leather strap is also included
60 minutes chronograph
Condition
All watches are categorised as brand new, preloved and so on. Vintage watches are shown as they are. For new watches we use some manufacturers' promotional pictures, but any limited edition numbers shown are those of the actual watch.
What we do and don't do
Each watch is fully inspected and is working as it should: hands turn freely, the date changes where fitted, and the watch winds. To bring you great prices we do not service every watch, and we recommend you do so regularly to keep it in good working order.
We bench test each watch for timekeeping and accept a tolerance of two minutes either way. If you have any concerns we are happy to send you a TIMEGRAPH reading with a picture of your watch in test. Some of the more expensive watches have been serviced by third party specialists, and where that is the case the service record is supplied with the watch and shown on the product page.
Watches are not tested for functionality and timekeeping over longer periods of time. For this reason, long-term performance is excluded from our warranty once the returns window has closed. This does not affect your statutory rights.
We aim to supply vintage watches in the best possible condition, but some wear must be expected due to age. This is shown in the pictures supplied. Please ask if you would like more pictures of any particular feature.
