en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiverse :

"In the chaotic inflation theory, a variant of the cosmic inflation theory, the multiverse as a whole is stretching and will continue doing so forever, but some regions of space stop stretching and form distinct bubbles, like gas pockets in a loaf of rising bread. Such bubbles are embryonic level of multiverses. Linde and Vanchurin calculated the number of these universes to be on the scale of 101010,000,000".

"Dans la théorie de l'expansion chaotique, une variante de la théorie de l'expansion cosmique, le multivers est étiré dans son ensemble et continue à le faire indéfiniment, mais certaines régions d'arrêt dans l'espace étiré forment des bulles distinctes, comme des poches de gaz dans une miche de pain qui lève. Ces bulles sont le niveau embryonnaire des multivers. Linde et Vanchurin ont calculé que le nombre de ces univers pourrait se situer à l'échelle de 101010.000.000."

Model: Baltika**
Year: Middle 60'
Caliber: 2609, hand-wound, 21 jewels
Nexus4

* "In its glory years after the war, the plant employed 8,000 people, produced 4.5 million watches per year for Soviet citizens and the needs of the Red Army. The plant is equipped with two atomic bunkers that can accommodate 8,000 people in the case of a western nuclear attack, had its own schools, university, hospital, resorts on the Black Sea, camps for Communist Youth Pioneer organization and Komsomol and its orchestras."

** "The original brand name for this type of watch was Baltika, but then the Petrodvorets Watch Factory adopted Raketa as the brand for all their models. Collectors usually refer to Raketa branded watches using the original 2609 movement as Baltika, the same way that Poljot and Sekonda chronographs with the 3017 movement are often generically known as Strela."

I was shooting in natural light some watches of my collection, in a small public garden near home.
And a nice cat came to visit me. He stayed only a few minutes...

"According to Princelle, the FS-12 appeared in 1982 and was produced until 1990 in a total quantity of approx. 110.000, but KMZ information indicates that FS-12's were produced until 1995. The FS-12 was essentially an FS-3 (Soviet thinking: why change a winning team?), but fitted with the new Zenit 12S reflex body and a new Helios-44M-4, 5 or 6.

There is some confusion about what exactly is an FS-12, because several camera/lens combinations share that same name. The most logical assumption is that it's a photo sniper set with a Zenit-12S body, but it's not that simple. According to KMZ information, these sub-types can be distinguished:

FS 12-1 : The original FS-12 with ZENIT-12s (sniper modification of ZENIT-TTL body)
FS 12-2 : FS-12 with ZENIT-12sds body (12sd)
FS 12-3 : FS-12 with ZENIT-12xps body (12xp), but 12xp is equal to 12sd: it was its export variant."
