Type-1 Modified with addition of Chronograph stage

- The movement in this pocket watch Chronograph, produced from about 1938 to 1940, is based on the Type-1 pocket watch caliber and is one of the very first indigenously designed Soviet watch movements that was actually produced in quantity. Engineers added an additional stage to a standard Type-1 pocket watch movement. With a start/stop/reset button at '11' this is one of two pocket watch Chronograph calibers produced roughly at the same time. The Chronograph function on the other variation is activated and reset by depressing the winding stem. Note that the Chronograph sub-dial counts elapsed minutes in an anticlockwise direction. This was probably done to minimize the number of gears that needed to be added; additional gears would have increased the thickness of the watch. See numbers 0197 for a similar piece and numbers 0013 and 0621 for the other variation. See also number 0904 for an early modified Type-1 movement stopwatch.
- Altmeppen reports that the production records he examined at the 1st Moscow Watch factory do not contain any mention of this caliber. It is my belief that the records are blank because the modification of the movement did not occur at this factory. Rather, I believe, the modification was made at the factory whose name appears in the dial signature.
- An artel is a cooperative of several persons who have equal rights. 1930-1950 C. Chronograph
