 I located this at an auction and although I do not really like gold watches this appealed to me as it is a 30th anniversary of the victory in the Great Patriotic War (1945-1975)
I have only ever seen one other similar to this.
Translates on the case to - "Nothing will be forgotten, nobody will be forgotten"
The flaming star is for the Unknown Soldier.
This is one of my favourite collection pieces from a collectors point of view and I would like to share it with you all.


I was also lucky enough to locate the medal to go with the watch from the same date.









I know it is not very new to my collection but I wish to share it with fellow collectors and enthusiasts.
