Description: Slava Tank Rare vintage automatic wrist watch for men made in USSR1970-80s Slava (Russian: Cлава, meaning "Glory") watches were classic "civil" Russian watches. The Slava factory (known originally as the Second Moscow Watch Factory) was the second non-military watchmaker established in the Soviet Union, in 1924. The watches of this brand have always been intended for civilian consumption, without military or aerospace pretensions. Slava's own mechanical movements feature two mainspring barrels coupled together with an idler gear. There are many versions of the movement including manual wind 2414 and 2428 (double date) and self winding 2416 and 2427 (double date). The movements are quite sensitive to shocks due to the thin balance staff. Other frequent problems include premature wear of the rotor bearing and the clutch driving the hands (not a typical cannon pinion). In addition, date indicator malfunctions are common. The movements are thus considered unreliable, especially compared to other Russian calibres. Earlier the 2nd Moscow Factory produced movements derived from an old pre-war French movement, the Lip "T-15" (also some Poljot movements were derived from this French brand), and produced under license (brands Pobeda and Start). In addition to that, for relatively brief periods, Slava also produced its own electronic movements using tuning fork and quartz systems. Some Slava watches were produced under Sekonda brand names. Awards: 1964 - at the Leipzig international fair, Slava's tuning-fork wristwatch received a gold medal 1974 - Slava watches received a gold medal at the Brno fair 1975 - gold medal at the Leipzig international fair
