Delete - it appears to be a means of advertising. --Doug Coldwell ^talk 12:40, 16 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
No delete - It is not a mean of advertising. Most of the notes added are from specialized publications from different countries. Other watchmakers have already their article, see for example George Daniels (watchmaker). Jafd88 talk 13:55 GMT, 16 june 2011. —Preceding undated comment added 12:59, 16 June 2011 (UTC).[reply]

The article has been "cleaned" to meet Wikipedia standards.

Keep. While the writing is indeed poor and advert-like, there is plenty of coverage of this person in Russian-language sources. See, for example, the external links section in the Russian Wikipedia article, or this English-language publication.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); June 17, 2011; 19:20 (UTC)

Keep. While if you look on the germany website, there are many exemples from germany artikles too. If you look some more in internet, you can finde many english artikles about this master too. If you want, I can send you some of that. And it is a member of an international academy of the clock- and watchmmakers: [1] Nadja Chaykina (talk) 16:46, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. I agree with Nadja. There are a lot of information about this person and his creations on the internet in different languages; Russian, English, Spanish, French, Italian, etc. On the other hand, in the Wikipedia article there is a reference from the "Horological Journal", an independent and reliable magazine from the reputed British Horological Institute.
