Russian Watches Mentioned in Online Publications

"Poljot Shturmanskie" gets a mention in Business-Standard.com, in "answers to the last week's quiz", apparently there was a quiz. Goes into a bit of history this one does.

So the quiz question was:

 8. Connect the defunct companies: Ansonia Clock Company of Brooklyn, New York, and the Dueber-Hampden Watch Company of Canton, Ohio, with Yuri Gagarin and what do you arrive at? 

  

What do you arrive at indeed? Answer (as supplied) after the break.
