Description
Chajka ( чайка, meaning “seagull”) watches are a women’s brand made in the Soviet Union and Russia. The factory “Chaika” was founded in 1940 as Volga in the city of Uglich for the production of precision technical stones and watch with jewels. The factory subsequently made watches with small calibres (16 mm).
In 1956, the company changed its name to Chaika, marketing watches under two brand names – Chaika and Volga.
The brand name Chaika was in honor of the first female cosmonaut, Valentina Tereshkova ( her nickname).
Nowadays, Chaika are not released woman watches any more.
