In 1919, the Soviet Union bought and imported two watch factories from the USA to start its own watchmaking industry. The first, Moscow's first watchmaking factory, produced Poljot watches. The second, also in Moscow, started production of watches in 1931, which became the Slava brand of watches during the 1950s. 

In January 2006, the Slava factory and its site were sold for retail development. By 2010 the factory had been demolished for new real estate projects.
