Electronika 77(A) х 3

Three Electronika 77A watches.

Two of them are Electronika 77A (with the "A") and are more recent, one chrome plated, the other yellow to resemble "gold-plating".

And the third one is an Electronika 77 (without the "A") and is older and rarer and was already mentioned in this entry on the blog.

 

Batteries are now replaced in all three, you can see the process in the latter half of the video.

Since the video is in Russian, here is a recap in English.

The three watches are Electronika 77s being clones of the 1970-80s Hong Kong Kessel/Montana watches, the latter still existing today in a cheap China version.

They show time, date, day of the week, have an alarm and a timer and also play seven tone melodies, I think, some American classics from the late 19th century (Yankee Doodle is there apparently).

Then I show how I replaced the batteries and set the time.

Electronika 77

Electronika 77, a Belorussian post-USSR electronic watch.

This one is Electronika 77 and not the Electronika 77A, that is without the "A". But there is no difference function-wise.

It is made by the Minsk Electronika plant.

The Electronika 77 (without the "A") is much rarer than the one with the "A". So it's a rarity of sorts.

The watch is a clone of the 1980s Hong Kong electronic watch called for some reason Montana, known in some parts of the world and maybe still in production but in a much cheaper mainland China version.
