Wind it every morning and is very accurate +4 a day without ever being regulated.  A nice looking timepiece with an olive nylon Ballistic from TSS.(U.K.)

 

I'm not quite sure.............but I think the 3105 is a 17j Poljot movement (very good BTW) and what is typically referred to as the Moljina is an 18j Russian movement made by other than Poljot.

In reference to German watches made in China, there are many....one brand, however (TRIAS) while marketing Asian watches, also has some very fine Swiss Made pieces utilizing both 17j and 25j ETA automatic movements and the 17j Unitas handwind movement!
