Poljot is sort of the big Russian umbrella company with brands such as Buran, Aviator, and Sturmanskie. They do/did sell watches with the Poljot name also.

Poljot has decided (as far as I know) to lessen its watch manufacturing. Moscow Classic seens to be the new brand that is coming in to fill the void (if there is one). Moscow Classic bought up all the remaining Molijna hand wind movements. So, you still see them in their models.

As for the Poljot container/tin, I'm sure they are just using them up to deliver watches. I wouldn't be concerned about it. I've owned a number of Classic models and all have come in Poljot tins or no box at all. :)

You could call Poljot the parent company of sorts. Almost all Russian watches I have seen seem to be related to Poljot in some forum or fashion. I guess like a quasi-parent company. All my Russians came with Poljot cards I think. Except for my Vostok-Europe's.

Most "Poljots" made today are made by Volmax. Moscow Classic is a totally different company; but all use Russian (sometimes Swiss) movements.
