NII Chasprom
Strela
Description
While it's already 4th example to surface I can't be more excited to finally own one one can't underestimate significance of caliber 3017 chronograph in the Soviet watchmaking. As many of you already know Nii Chasprom logo means we're looking at an early prototype of the 3017 that later became Strela. An interesting fact about the dial - there are 5 smaller indices between minute indices which might indicate that 3017 developers had a faster bmp in mind to achieve better accuracy. We will probably never find out what went wrong and let them to the decision to leave it at 21600.
