Molnija: Brand Information
Updated 23 Nov 2008 by Editor, RussianWatchGuide.com Molnija is a Russian manufacturer of mechanical pocket watches and clocks. The company was founded in 1947. Many of their clocks were produced for military use. With the current trend toward extremely large wrist watches, some manufacturers have adapted Molnija mechanical pocket watch movements for use in wrist watches. One example is the Moscow Classic 3603 previously reviewed on this site. Although some Molnija pocket watches are currently available on the market, it appears the company stopped production in 2007. (If you have more information on the current status of the company, please leave a comment below.) Official Website No official website. Molnija.ru appears to be a mirror of the Solod.com watch store.

THANKS AGAIN,
MIRZA SADIQ HUSSAIN/ ELECTRICAL ENGINEER/BANGALORE CITY/KARNATAKA STATE/ INDIA Sorry, the subject of the above post is "Rare Russian MOLNIJA pocket watch MILITARY SPACE FORCES" On the surface it would seem such a watch would be knock off. However, I purchased one on ebay as a lark. Does anyone have any information on these specialty watches and whether they really were produced for members of the Russian Space Force on it's 40th anniversry?
My Russian fiance feels it is ludicris to have the symbol of the Soviet Space force on one side and the creast of the Russian monarchy on the other since they are the antithisis of each other. I can be contacted at bdoyle@cleardatacorp.com.
Thank you in advance for any information. There was an article at Solod that said Molniya stopped production in October 2007. |
