RELEASED | 1974
Although I tink this particular watch dates from 1977 this is the B6-02(or possibly 01) the first russian built digital watch(according to sources). This information may change as I find out more about digital watches made in the USSR. I found this in a thread on a forum "Possibly as early as 1974, ZIM in Kuybyshev was producing LCD digital watches (model B6-02). Russian sources confirm that this was the first Soviet digital watch. This bulky, primitive watch had 4 digits displaying hours and minutes only. Strangely there was 3 setting buttons. The third one was to zero the seconds, even though they weren�t displayable! This watch was produced in several case styles, and was even exported. The only other offering from ZIM was in the 1980s; a very basic 4-digit LCD (calibre 30351) in what looked like the modified case of a mechanical Pobeda watch. ZIM digitals were sold with the following brand names: ZIM, Elektronika, Pobeda and Sekonda."
