This rare WWII-era watch is in perfectly functional condition and comes with a brand new canvas strap. All parts work. Some wear on the face and case, but in good aesthetic condition.

The Flieger Chronograph Watch, also known as the UROFA 59, was produced in Glashutte, Germany for use by Luftwaffe pilots during WWII.

After the war ended Germany was divided into four occupation zones with Saxony, including Glashütte, falling under Soviet control. The Soviets, impressed by Glashütte's watchmaking expertise, seized the designs, remaining parts, and manufacturing machinery as war reparations.

On May 23rd, 1945, the Soviet military secured the watch factory, and after some debate, orders were given on July 1st for the immediate dismantling of the UROFA and UFAG workshops. By August 11th the equipment and about 20 workers were relocated to Moscow to establish the First Moscow Watch Factory.

The 1MCHZ branded Soviet Flieger chronograph is a rare timepiece produced using German parts and equipment taken from the Glashütte factor
