Slava Quartz Medical Watch

This vintage timepiece is a Slava (Cлава) medical pulsometer watch, specifically designed for healthcare professionals to measure heart rates. The dial features a specialized scale and the 'Сделано в СССР' (Made in USSR) mark at the bottom, indicating its historical manufacturing origin in the Soviet Union during the late 20th century.

Slava was one of the primary brands produced by the Second Moscow Watch Factory. Established in 1924, this factory became a cornerstone of Soviet horology, focusing on civilian timepieces while other factories focused on military precision. After the dissolution of the Soviet Union, the Slava brand transitioned through various ownership structures. Today, the trademark is managed by the Slava Trade House, which continues to produce watches using both classic Russian mechanical movements and modern components, maintaining the heritage of the original Moscow-based manufacture.
