An auction house is offering this odd item, an serial 30.xxx.xxx 145022 with an Soyuz dial, non-engraved Soyuz caseback, with standard 145022 pushers (on a Soyuz case?) and what looks to be the correct 1168 bracelet with 633 endlinks.

So what could we have here, a “genuine” Soyuz but with swapped movement, still missing the serial number engraving on the caseback (maybe worn off?), or Soyuz spare parts on a -69 145022?

 

I think this watch has been discussed some time ago, for example here:

Wow, so some one bit the bullet a short time ago, and now trying to unload it this time thru auction in UK instead of Ebay?

How many times has this specific watch circulated the last two years??
