Nothing to do with Russia....(only text on dial, СЛАВА(Fame), assembled in China,cheapo movement etc,sold mostly from HK!? and China

I actually quite like that, which is weird, as B&R don't normally grab my attention... Maybe it's the Russian writing, maybe it's the price... It's just a shame that it's the day/month/24 hour display rather than stopwatch... Might be worth picking up as a beater... :)

СЛАВА, actually, mean "Glory". It's famous Russian brand of 60's and 70's.

Well my friend the guy you are talking to above is Russian (by birth) so I think he prob knows best, don't you?

NEVER trust google for an exact translation. If you're lucky you get something that makes sence, kinda.

Intrieging homage tho, very B&R. The homage crazies at RWG 1.1 will be interested. They are busy disecting old pocket watches to get MVTs for vintage homage Pams ATM. I particualy like VDB's effort on THIS page and Houndoggie's HERE
