Волна/Volna ("Wave") Precision 22 jewels USSR

Brand: Волна/Volna ("Wave")

Chistopol Watch Factory USSR

Year: circa 1963

 

Caliber: 2809 22 jewels (version A). Inspired from the well known Precision Zenith 135 caliber.

 

"2809 is the only chronometer-class movement ever produced in Russia. More accurate than anything else. As robust and dependable as Pobeda or Raketa 26xxHA, but unlike them - extremely accurate even after years of poor or no servicing. Different classes of watches, I guess - iconic dial for Sputnik, sturdiest case for Amphibia, and the best handwind movement - for 2809"
