Description
Vintage Soviet Molnija table clock – the same model that appears in HBO’s mini-series “Chernobyl”
MADE IN USSR!
Faceted amber-orange acrylic, a ribbed black ring with twelve spokes and a gold textured dial signed «Молния» in flowing script: this is the Molnija table clock seen on screen in HBO’s 2019 mini-series Chernobyl. A still from the series appears further down the page for comparison.
Made by the Chelyabinsk Watch Factory “Molnija” in the USSR. The back is stamped ГОСТ 3309-75 КЛАСС I. That is the Soviet standard for balance-wheel table and wall clocks, superseded by a new edition in 1986, so this clock was made between the mid-1970s and the mid-1980s.
Fully mechanical, no batteries: one full wind keeps it running for about 7 days. It is wound and set from the back.
This example stands on its black V-shaped foot. The acrylic is bright and clear, with only light surface marks from age.

About the watch factory

The factory stopped making consumer watches in October 2007 but carried on building aviation and technical clocks; pocket watch production resumed in 2015, and the company still operates in Chelyabinsk.
Besides the Molnija pocket watches, the factory also made the Ural wristwatch from 1956.
