History of the Molnija "October Revolution" pocket watch
First off, my apologies for not speaking a single lick of Russian, expect Октя́брьская револю́ция. How did I learn such a historical phrase? It's the words on my Russian pocket watch. My own studies show it was made by Molnija, a company that started about 30 years after the revolution, according to my research at least. Can anyone tell me anything about this watch? I've been a fan of Russian culture since I learned I was named after the last tsar, and would be interested in anything you could tell me. Thanks in advance.
