When the Germans invaded Russia in 1941, Vasily Grossman became a special correspondent for the Red Star, the Soviet Army's newspaper, and reported from the frontlines of the war. A Writer at War depicts in vivid detail the crushing conditions on the Eastern Front, and the lives and deaths of soldiers and civilians alike. Witnessing some of the most savage fighting of the war, Grossman saw firsthand the repeated early defeats of the Red Army, the brutal street fighting in Stalingrad, the Battle of Kursk (the largest tank engagement in history), the defense of Moscow, the battles in Ukraine, the atrocities at Treblinka, and much more. Antony Beevor and Luba Vinogradova have taken Grossman's raw notebooks, and fashioned them into a gripping narrative providing one of the most even-handed descriptions --at once unflinching and sensitive -- we have ever had of what Grossman called "the ruthless truth of war."

Got water in the face just a few weeks after purchase
Color: Gold Silver Band and White Face, Color: Gold Silver Band and White Face
UPDATE: After leaving this review OLEVS Amazon customer service contacted me. I was given a full refund for the watch. Much better customer service!!!! The watch is heavy enough and looks nice but a few weeks after having it water got in the face of it. Contacted OLEVS and they basically told me they couldn’t help me since I didn’t buy it from their official site. They don’t offer support for Amazon purchases. Of course it is past the Amazon return window.

Perfect everyday Watch
Color: Grey, Color: Grey
Super happy with this watch. It looks really clean and goes with pretty much anything dress it up or wear it casual. The blue face is fire in person and catches the light really nicely. Feels solid on the wrist, not too heavy, and the quality is definitely there. I’ve been wearing it almost every day and it still looks brand new. For the price, you really can’t beat it. Great everyday watch that looks way more expensive than it is. Would 100% buy again

Stylish and inexpensive
Color: Grey
Great watch. Came in quickly from seller. Got it sized at a local shop. It’s a pretty stylish watch for the price point. I don’t have big wrists but I still think the face could be a little bigger. But it’s pretty sleek and I’m happy
