received a most interesting watch today. A Molnija 6305 in a pocket watch. What's interesting, the watch is in Hebrew. Everything works backwards including the winding mechanism.

Pam, I have this watch as well (Junkers 6434)....Just purchased last week. It is losing 2-3 minutes each 12 hour cycle. In my work, this is unacceptable. I am trying to decide-return or replace. Given your experience, is it an anomaly....Should I expect better performance from this model? Thanks

swips, My experience with molnija movements is that they are reliable and accurate. Yours seems to have something wrong.
