Description: Vintage Men's MOLNIYA, USSR, Soviet Department of Defense Pocket Watch 1941-1945 Overall very good condition. Works. The glass or the watch crystal is no longer secure on the watch face. It sits flush but the adhesive that previously held it down has failed likely from time. The front translates to "PATRIOTIC WARRIOR" This item will be shipped securely in a box not an envelope. Molniya (Russian: Челябинский часовой завод) was a Russian watch and clockmaker based in Chelyabinsk, Chelyabinsk Oblast. Molnija (Молния) is the Russian word for lightning. The Molnija clock and watch factory opened on November 17, 1947. The company's main customer was then the Soviet Union Department of Defense, providing them with wristwatches, pocket watches and table clocks. Molnija's main product were mechanical pocket watches with military, religious and historical motifs. The Molnija movement is basically a copy of a Cortébert movement used in Swiss watches from around 1940.[2] About 80% of the work on most of the watches was done by hand.
