Rare Cal. 100 raw movement, marine chronometer / deck watch Poljot / Kirova / Moscow Watch Factory from approx. 1965, replicated from a Lange & Söhne Glashütte wartime loot   

It is well known that after 1945, the Russian army dismantled machinery, raw movements, and finished parts from the Lange & Söhne manufacture in Glashütte and brought them to Russia as war booty.

From the end of 1945, the Moscow Watch Factory produced both B-watches and ship chronometers in Moscow under the designation "Kirova 1" using original parts from the Lange & Söhne Glashütte manufacture, especially the marine chronometer movement Cal. 100.

When the looted individual parts and raw movements from Glashütte were used up, they were reproduced in Moscow on the original machines until almost the 80s.
