Symbol The sign was a pentagonal shield with a rotated letter K (from Russian word Kachestvo – quality) stylized as scales below the Cyrillic abbreviation for USSR (Russian: СССР, SSSR). History It was used to mark consumer, production, and technical goods to certify that they met quality standards and, in general, to increase the effectiveness of the production system in the USSR. The goods themselves or their packaging were marked, as was the accompanying documentation, labels or tags. Rules of its use were defined by GOST, an acronym for "state standard" (gosudarstvennyy standart), section 1.9-67 (April 7, 1967).

The effect of this watch on Soviet development policy relating to quartz watches can only be speculated upon, but it is clear that in the early digital era the Soviets were keen to stay as close to the technological bleeding-edge as was possible. There is a popular and enduring internet myth that an early Soviet attempt at a LED watch was so unsuccessful that it was quickly taken off the market and replaced by a mechanical jump-hour with red back-light to simulate a LED. In fact the only Soviet-made jump-hour was the Zarja 2006, produced around the late ‘60s or early ‘70s; but it is unlikely to have been converted in such a fashion. The ‘Tegrov’ pseudo-LED jump-hour referred to in some sources was a Swiss watch with no relevance to Soviet developments. Possibly as early as 1974, ZIM in Kuybyshev was producing LCD digital watches (model B6-02). Russian sources confirm that this was the first Soviet digital watch. This bulky, primitive watch had 4 digits displaying hours and minutes only. Strangely there was 3 setting buttons. The third one was to zero the seconds, even though they weren’t displayable! This watch was produced in several case styles, and was even exported. The only other offering from ZIM was in the 1980s; a very basic 4-digit LCD (calibre 30351) in what looked like the modified case of a mechanical Pobeda watch. ZIM digitals were sold with the following brand names: ZIM, Elektronika, Pobeda and Sekonda. The Buletronic watch below is from the first russian patent for LED-Watches and was produced in a bulgarian factory. The watch has time, seconds and a day & date dunction. The back cover is marked: BULETRONIC with a serial number. Around the same time as the B6.02 or shortly after, NII-Zavod Pulsar in Moscow started production of their LED display Elektronika-1 (model B6.03) which remained in production into the mid 1990s! The 4-digit LED shows hours and minutes with a short push of the button, and seconds with a long push, with day and date available at the push of another button. It was made in several different case styles however the module is the same in all cases. The Elektronika-1 is currently the most collectable of Soviet digitals, possibly due to the common misunderstanding (due no doubt to it having LED display) that it was the first Soviet digital, or possibly just because LED is more distinctly ‘retro’. This watch was sold as Elektronika and Elektronika-1, and presumably never has been exported. Also included in this first wave of digital enthusiasm was Integral Elektronika Factory in Minsk. Their brand name was Elektronika-5 and their first model, 5.202 (module calibre 30350) was a 6-digit LCD with day and date (correcting for short and long months). It remained in production for many years alongside more modern models, including the multi-function 5.207. In the post Soviet era, Integral continued production of the 2nd generation Elektronika-5 models then current, but with new names (e.g. 55B). These are the basis for the current Elektronika and Kamerton ranges. Soviet Integral digitals were sold with the following brand names: Elektronika-5, Elektronika and Sekonda. In the mid 1980s 1st Moscow Watch Factory Poljot produced a multifunction analogue-digital (calibre 2968). Its rarety indicates that it only saw limited production (or perhaps that production was primarily for the sale of movements to foreign brands). The watch was sold as Poljot and possibly Sekonda. In the 1990s a similar watch was made by Minsk Watch Factory (calibre 2964) under the brand name Luch. In 1977 there was a LCD digital sold under the Sekonda label featuring a world-time function that looked virtually identical to a Seiko produced within the previous year. Was it pirated or a licensed product? Who knows; both possibilities seem equally unlikely. Sekonda was a brand created in 1966 for marketing all Soviet watches internationally. From the mid-1980s they increasingly supplemented their digital range with non-Soviet products. Post-Soviet Sekonda (now Sekonda UK) ceased buying from Russian or Belorussian producers in 1993. Current Situation There are no Russian watch companies currently making quartz watch movements. No quartz means no digital either. However Chasprom lists two Belorussian digital watch brands on their catalogue, Elektronika and Kamerton. Elektronika is based in Minsk and Kamerton in Pinsk. Both are part of the electronics combine Integral. Their watch ranges are almost identical and consists principally of slightly retro-looking 4-digit women’s LCD watches, and 6-digit and 2-line men’s multifunction watches. The ChN-05 analogue-digital watch uses a small Miyota quartz movement embedded in a multifunction electronic module with dual LCD. Also produced are Nintendo Game&Watch clones, including some original locally designed games. Bizarrely, Kamerton also has a Pobeda-type mechanical watch on their product-list! Kamerton and Elektronika are not currently marketed outside Russian-speaking countries. RECOMMENDATIONS All Antique watches are mechanical. Many repairs will not be cheap, as most likely they will require replacement of non-standard parts (unlike most late model watches). Antique watches should not be beaten or dropped - because repairs may be expensive. Antique watches are generally NOT waterproof. This is because waterproofing was not in general production until the middle of the 20th century for most watches. Therefore you should protect your antique watch from exposure to moisture. If your watch becomes wet it should be dried off quickly. Carefully open all covers and use a hair drier to blow dry the movement, dial, covers, crown. This will reduce the amount of rust. If your watch becomes wet with any kind of salt water you should immediately immerse or spray your watch with fresh (no-salt) water to remove all the salt from the works before drying the watch completely. Any salt left in the watch will combine with moisture in the air to rust metal components of the movement, case etc. Winding any mechanical watch tight may break the mainspring. If you can avoid it do not wind the watch hard. When adjusting the hands of your watch, move them in a clockwise direction only. Counter-clockwise adjustments may damage the movement. It is desirable to adjust the hands of your watch at the same time every day. An automatic or self-winding watch should be worn for at least 8 hours a day. It is a mechanical watch in which the mainspring is wound automatically as a result of natural motion of the wearer's arm, to provide energy to run the watch, making manual winding unnecessary. If you must adjust counter-clockwise make it for small adjustments only (i.e. for minutes, NOT hours). Be careful and gentle when adjusting the movement speed (faster or slower). Don't make sharp movements, and don't touch other components in the movement especially the pendulum mechanism. Every 2-3 years it is necessary to service and oil vintage watches. If the course of your watches is worsening and the accuracy of the reduction in the duration of the clock (autonomy) from one fully wound spring - it need a service. IF the watch is dirty - allow the watch to run down, don't wind it again until you have it serviced by a qualified watch repair expert. Dust will absorb and remove important lubricants and cause the movement pieces to wear down. To clean the case, dial and crystal you should use a cloth that does NOT leave fibers as these may get caught up in the movement. Check with your Watch repair expert to get an appropriate cloth. Keep your antiques watch away from magnets. Strong magnetic fields may affect the accuracy of your watch since some vintage watches were made with iron based components in the movement. Most Cases and Covers are fine components and will not handle abuse well. The watch should not be shaken, beaten, or stressed. Antique watches generally experience an error of up to 5-7 minutes a day. Any accuracy of +- 5 minutes is very good. Mechanical watch is not recommended to use for engage in extreme sports, and expose them to excessive vibration loads. Recoil force, which take on the clock, affect their reliability and precision. No matter how perfect was not anti-shock mechanism, there is always the chance of excessive load that details of the mechanism can not survive. Watch with calendar. It is not recommended to adjust, the date between 20.00 and 06.00, because at this time involved a mechanism for automatic adjustment date. Translation pointers calendars manually in this position arrows may damage the mechanism. Date changes should be made, relegating pre-clockwise to lower sector of the dial (for example, to position 6 (18.00) hours). Chronograph watches. In most cases, these watches contain the "start/stop" button and "reset" button. It is strongly recommended not to press the "reset" if the chronograph is running. Before you use the "Reset" button need to stop the chronograph by button "start/stop". Using the "reset" when running chronograph can damage the mechanism of most models of watches.
