Second Moscow Clockwork: History of creating a famous enterprise

There were no clock plants in Soviet Russia, it was significantly spoiled by the image of a young state, which by all the forces sought to become the first in all areas of the economy and the production of goods for the population. Permanent experience had to have foreign colleagues, the first equipment was bought in the same place better quality. But it was the basis for the opening of watch factories in the Soviet Union.

In the twenties, the 20th century in the capital opened the second Moscow time plant, which was formed as a result of the merger of numerous workshops and the radio telegraphed plant. In those days, only the best watch masters of the former Empire worked on the enterprise opened. They actively cooperated with the Soviet authorities and were pleased to be able to engage in loved things. The same people independently trained newcomers, subsequently become those who created the brand "Glory". The Watch of the USSR has always received a rather audible names that characterized the spirit of a young state. In addition, they differed in high quality and therefore were quite carefully developed. The debut product of the second Moscow watch factory came out only six years after his education. And it was not a wrist watch, but street. Another twenty years were separated from the moment of creating the brand "Glory" (hours, USSR), which will be proud of the enterprise.

After the first street hours, the Muscovites had alarm clocks. They were available not to every resident of the capital, but enjoyed in great demand and were a symbol of success.

Brand "Glory"

The Watch of the USSR began to produce massively about the eve of the Second World War. Nearby from the general trend and clockwork. The production was released various brands of wrist watch mechanisms - "ERA", "Victory". Pocket models called "Salute" were actively bought. Desktop mechanisms and alarms already mentioned earlier were included.

Soviet people sought to acquire the goods produced by the industry of our country, which differed in high quality. This aspect was attached of particular importancebecause citizens of the USSR were supposed to own only the most best products. Such was the policy of the state.

With the beginning of the Second World War, the release of the clock was suspended, and the plant itself was evacuated to Chistopol. In the future, this city has created its own company, which is a subsidiary of the second Moscow watch factory.

A few years after the momentary victory, the first hours of men's mechanical stamps "Glory" were released. A few years later, a female model was published under the same name.

Brief description of the clock "Glory"

The model "Glory" appeared only after the Masters of the Plant managed to master the production of small-sized alarm clocks. In addition, to create a new brand, they needed for many years spent on the development of stopwalls and various hourly mechanisms. Literally since its first appearance on the shelves of stores, Soviet citizens loved the brand "Glory". The Watch of the USSR in the second half of the twentieth century was rather luxury than everyday life. Therefore, the people of our huge country with pleasure perceived the appearance of models that were designed for the possibilities and needs of the average person. This already provided with these hourly popularity.

Over time, a fairly wide range of products of the plant began to produce under this brand:

Most models were mechanical, but the first in the country were released precisely under such favorite Soviet citizens a brand "Glory".

From the mid-sixties of the twentieth century, watch masters began to exhibit models under the brand "Glory" to international exhibitions. And, which is quite expected, received a high assessment of overseas experts. Not once the products of the second Moscow watch factory were honored with gold medals. It was this fact that played its role in the fact that the products of the brand "Glory" (hours, the USSR) began to be exported. They were supplied by different countries Mira, sometimes more than half of all products went for export. It served as a shock for modifications of mechanisms, watch masters actively worked on their brand technological characteristics did not inferdate Western new items. One of characteristic features All models without exception was a double clockwork drum. Over time, he became a symbol of "Glory".
