I bring to your attention rare vintage USSR (CCCP) Russian Military collectables, mechanical cockpit panel clock Chronograph AChS-1 from Soviet Union Aircraft. The given model of a clock is considered rare; very few models of a clock of such type have been let out. The table clock is produced at the Molnia (Molnija) Military watch factory, where instrument panel clocks for MiG aircraft and submarines are also made. Molnia Watch & Clock Factory is located in Chelyabinsk, industrial center of South Urals Mountain ridge, Russia. It is one of the biggest regions in the mid-Russia known for its talented craftsmen. When you look back to the history of Russia you'll see that Russian Tsars always invited the Ural craftsmen when they wanted to get unique and beautiful things for their palaces or as presents to other countries. The factory was established on November 17, 1947. At first main products were wristwatches, pocket watches, mechanical table clocks and unique technical clocks for tanks and submarines ordered and paid by Soviet Union Department of Defense. Although Molnia Watch and Clock factory still produces some military stuff (such as aircraft clocks), from the end of 50-s and up to the present time the main product of the factory is mechanical 15 -18 jewels watches "Molnia". Eighty percent (!) of work is done by hand. All parts for watches, except jewels and accessories are produced by the factory itself.

Where established in a control panel of jet military planes MIG-19, MIG-21, MIG-23, strategic bombers, Helicopter and transport planes of the USSROn the dial, clock markers and clock hands are fluorescent (luminous in dark). On face side, dome glass is crystal. The clock has been restored, checked and calibrated by a master watchmaker and is in good running condition. This unique clock was kept till our time in good condition.

Recommendations for the owner of antiquarian clock:

All Antique and vintage watches (Clocks) are mechanical. Many repairs will not be cheap, as most likely they will require replacement of non-standard parts (unlike most late model watches).

- Antique and vintage watches should not be beaten or dropped - because repairs may be expensive.
- Antique and vintage watches are generally NOT waterproof.
This is because waterproofing was not in general production until the middle of the 20th century for most watches. Therefore you should protect your antique watch from exposure to moisture.
- If 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.
- If 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.
- Winding any mechanical watch tight may break the mainspring. If you can avoid it do not wind the watch hard.
- When adjusting the hands of your watch, move them in a clockwise direction only. Counter-clockwise adjustments may damage the movement.
- If you must adjust counter-clockwise make it for small adjustments only (i.e. for minutes, NOT hours).
- Be 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.
- Every 2-3 years it is necessary to service and oil vintage watches.
- IF 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.
- To 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.
- Keep your antiques watch away from magnets. Strong magnetic fields may affect the accuracy of your watch since some vintage watches were made with iron based components in the movement.
- Most Cases and Covers are fine components and will not handle abuse well. The watch should not be shaken, beaten, or stressed.
- Antique watches generally experience an error of up to 5-10 minutes a day.
Any accuracy of +- 5 minutes is very good.

Hyundai began its SEMA push on Monday with a 1,000-hp Genesis coupe from Bisimoto Engineering. We're not sure how the company managed to squeeze that many ponies out of the Genesis' 3.8-liter V6. We're guessing alchemy has something to do with it.
