Mysterious clock. At least for me.
Movement: 3017, produced by 1MWF.
Case: Molnija type. Wristwatch, not pocket watch. Model for the aviation.
On the black dial: scales Shturmanskie type; two subdials, hands Urofa Type-59 style, chronograph hand thin and very long. Pump pushers buttons for the chronograph functions. 1MChZ KIROVA at 12 and "ZAK. [AZ] mo cccp" at 6 o'clock.
Oxidized hands and dial with signs of aging: they seem to have at least fifty years and they don't appear to be recently reissued. The movement serial number is twenty thousand or so.
Never seen a similar model. Unless a modern edition, with new dial and hand and the addition of the word "1951" on it.
A model produced in a few pieces? A prototype, not for sale?
Details to follow.
Investigations are open and all kind of speculations are allowed.
