The following practical tips will help you protect your watch from adverse factors in everyday use:
If it is necessary to service the watch or cause a malfunction in its operation, you can contact one of the authorized service centers or directly to our factory, and we will make every effort to assist in resolving any problem.
The warranty covers only those watches sold by authorized dealers.
Warranty lasts for 2 years from date of purchase. The warranty covers material and assembly defects. In the event of a problem falling under the conditions of the warranty the manufacturer will repair the defect at no cost to the consumer. If a repair is impossible, the manufacturer will replace the watch with an identical one, or one with the same characteristics. Repairs should take place only in authorized centers. To find an authorized service center, contact your local retailer.
Warranty does not cover:
Chelyabinsk watch and clock factory MOLNIJA produced about a million household hours a year in Soviet times from 50 to 80-90. Unfortunately, the documentation on the numbers of the movements and the release dates were not preserved at the factory. You can send us an e-mail photo of the watch and the movement with the back cover open to determine the approximate dates of the watch. For pocket watches with a 3602, 3603 caliber, a guide to Molnija movements was compiled by users of the Russian watch forum. If you wish, you can compare your movement with the descriptions in this guide https://goo.gl/FoKNm1 (it is in Russian language).
At this time, the details of the 3602/3603 movements are not supplied separately, as there is no such technical possibility.
The black coating on Molnija watches is IP (Ion Plating) coating, which is a type of PVD. PVD coating involves several deposition methods through direct vapor condensation of the material being applied. IP coating, in essence, is an improved version of PVD in terms of resistance to scratches and rust. The main difference between IP and PVD is the presence of an additional layer that allows the surface to be any color, depending on the color of the dye used in the coating process.
All our watches are made from medical-grade 316L stainless steel, which is hypoallergenic and also used for manufacturing medical instruments. Additionally, we offer watches made from titanium, which is also a hypoallergenic material.
Additionally, consider the type of strap. Leather straps and metal bracelets should not be exposed to water. For water activities, it is better to use silicone, nylon, or rubber straps.
The price is determined by the combination of production costs: design development, acquisition of new equipment for manufacturing components, testing, and servicing the watches. We are expanding our production, implementing modern technologies, and attracting young specialists, all of which are quite costly. Additionally, we specialize in small-batch production, which enhances the quality of the watches but also impacts the cost per unit.
All case backs with glass use mineral glass, not sapphire.
The stated lifespan of the mechanism for wristwatches is 5 years. In practice, with regular and proper maintenance, the mechanisms can last 10 to 15 years.
Approximately 3-4 years, depending on usage (how often the chronograph and other additional functions are used).
The manufacturing date is not shown in the watch documents.
All mechanisms installed in our wristwatches are shock-resistant.
TCB stands for watches with a transparent case back and equipped with a decorated 3603 mechanism.
This is heat treatment; the blue color is achieved by heating to a specific temperature in a special solution.
The warranty for all wristwatches is 2 years.
