My very first Ebay purchase! A Luch (Lutsch) 17 Jewel Calibre 1901 children's watch. The Luch factory is located in Minsk Belarus.

The character on the watch face is Karlson who is featured in a beloved children's cartoon popular back in the USSR days.

I'm saving this one for my 3 year old daughter for when she begins to learn how to tell time.
The case back is snap on and has an integrated spacer built into the back. The small size of the movement is impressive to me - we expect electronics to be small these days but seeing something mechanical that small and precise is always amazing.
