With newspaper cutting stating the following: "The Story of the mystery watch, found in a Parisian antiques fleamarket the World War II artefact provides more questions and answers. The Russian mechanical wristwatch was manufactured by J M Kupona CCCP movement numbered 477984. It has a large robust chrome metal case with protective glass, luminous hands and numerals which all characterise this watch. The black enamel dial has a picture of Stalin and Zhukov saluting a military parade in Red Square. The manufacturer's name and address also appear on the dial. The inside of the backplate of the watch is inscribed 'Marshal Gyorgy Zhukov although his name is generally reported as Georgy. Why do these two great Russian Generals appear on the same watch? The watch was purchased more than twenty years ago by Wythenshawe Resident Author Broadcaster and Historian David Turner. It is alleged that this watch was presented to Marshal Zhukov by Joseph Stalin in recognition of Marshal Zhukov's success fully defending Stalingrad against the German onslaught and capturing Berlin in World War II ahead of the Allied Forces so we have two Russian Army Generals depicted on this watch who were also seconded to several senior posts within the government. David told Your Local Voice that despite interest from Imperial War Museum he is keen to offer the watch back to Russia adding that 'BBC Television in Manchester have said they will cooperate with Russian television to produce a programme covering the presentation of the watch to a suitable Russian military museum as part of their military history for posterity'."
