Before WWII, the factory was overseen by various state commissariats, reflected in the rare NKM (Наркомат Машиностроения) stamp applied from 1938 to 1940. These early timepieces served as the foundation for Soviet military, pocket, and wristwatches through World War II.\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cdiv style=\"background-color:#171717; color:#ffffff;\"\u003e\n \u003ch3 class=\"стиль2\" align=\"center\"\u003eRECOMMENDATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n \u003c\/div\u003e\n \u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eAll Antique and vintage watches are mechanical.

Protect your timekeeper from direct contact with water, heavy rain, or high humidity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eIf 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.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eIf 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.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eWinding any mechanical watch tight may break the mainspring. Stop winding as soon as you feel the natural resistance tightening up.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eWhen adjusting the hands of your watch, move them in a clockwise direction only to prevent stress on the gear train.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eIf you must adjust counter-clockwise make it for small adjustments only (i.e. for minutes, NOT hours).\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eBe 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.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eEvery 2-3 years it is recommended to service, clean, and oil vintage watches to keep them running accurately for decades to come.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eIF 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.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eTo 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.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eKeep your watch away from strong magnetic fields (large speakers, modern computers, magnets) since magnetic exposure can alter the balance spring performance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eMost Cases and Covers are fine components and will not handle abuse well. The watch should not be shaken, beaten, or stressed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eVintage mechanical watches naturally experience a daily deviation error of up to a few minutes.
