Luch-16853, Luch-2370, Luch-2609 mechanisms. Children’s watches
Clockwork «Luch-16853»
In 1992, the factory began producing the «Luch-16853», a 16 mm quartz clock mechanism with a stepper motor. Its main feature was a moon phase calendar. A rotating inner disc on the dial showed the phases of the Moon. A full moon cycle lasts 29.5 days, so the disc made one full turn every 59 days, covering two lunar cycles. Watches with this movement were made in different case sizes and colors. Production ended in 2002.
Clockwork «Luch-2370»
The «Luch-2370» was a 23 mm quartz movement with a stepper motor and a day-night indicator. A small inner disc with images of the sun and moon rotated to show the time of day. The «Day–Night» watches came in various designs, including a version featuring the Red Church in Minsk (1998) (20). Production ended in 2003.
Clockwork «Luch-2609»
After production of the iconic «Luch-2209» ended, there was still demand for men’s mechanical watches. The «Luch-2609», developed and launched in 1999, became a point of pride for the factory. Unlike quartz watches, it was fully mechanical. It was a first-class precision movement with a 26 mm caliber, 16 ruby stones, lever escapement, shock protection for the balance staff, and a central seconds hand. A full wind provided at least 42 hours of operation. It was discontinued in the early 2000s.
Children’s watches
In the 1990s, with new materials becoming available, the range of products expanded to include children’s models. These came in both mechanical and quartz versions, with a variety of designs and playful dial patterns.
