About Iskra brand

Iskra / Искра

Iskra (Искра, meaning “spark”) was a short-lived brand of the Second Moscow Watch Factory, produced for roughly two years between about 1955 and 1957.

These were pocket watches, built on the designs the factory already used for its Salut and Molnija models but in an upgraded form: a larger case and a 17-jewel ЧК-30 movement placed Iskra a class above the standard Molnija of the period.

The Second Moscow Watch Factory went on to consolidate its production under the Slava name in the early 1960s.
