Slava (Russian: Cлава, meaning "Glory") watches are inexpensive, classic "civil" Russian watches commonly referred to as "Slava Lava!". The Slava factory (known originally as the Second Moscow Watch Factory) was the second non-military watch maker established in the Soviet Union. The watches of this brand look quite civilian, without a real military layout.

The early movements were derived from an old pre-war French movement, the Lip "T-15" (also some Poljot movements were derived from this French brand), and produced under license.

While Slava watches utilize some Russian-made movements today, most post-Soviet Slava watch movements are imported from China. As of January, 2006, the Slava factory and its property are to be sold for retail development. Thus, the future of the Slava brand is uncertain.
