- 1959 - 1963 Strela, Sekonda, up to 19000
- 1964 - 1965 Strela, Sekonda, Poljot 19000 to 31000
- 1966 - 1967 Sekonda, Poljot 31000 to 42000
- (Movement number divided by 5000, then add 1959 to get year of production).
Hello, I am new here I have a question about the serial number of my Strela since I have 25XXX serial but my Strela has a white dial without telemeter, tachymeter ect. so that means my Strela has an early dial but has a movement from 1964? I don’t think this can be right. Could the movement be switched with a newer one? The guy that sold me the watch said it was all original
(Im sorry if my English is bad)

·Hi,
I haven't looked at mine in a while, but according to your movement number, it would be a 1964 production. Can you post a photo of the dial and movement?
Cheers,
Buster

·Yours would be correct for 1964 - 1965 where it lists Cyrilic Strela in yellow above the curved yellow line.

Ok so that means my Strela is a late Cyrilic Strela from 1964 Right? Thank you very much for helping me I wasn’t sure if it might be a franken watch or not

The Sekonda dedicated to a Russian Major from his comrades. I have seen better dials but the whole dial seems nicely aged to me. Regardless, it was the inscription that sold it for me.
The Pobeda was as close as I could find to the first watch in space based on photos of the font and remains of the number 6. It ain't a beauty but it runs and seems period correct.

·Bought this one last week (not my own photos) Hopefully it will live again as it has a broken balance wheel, just too lovely a looking watch to scrap!
My collection of Russian wristware is growing quite fast with about 6 different vintage watches purchased so far this year and normally dirt cheap, paid about $25.00 the other week for an Automatic 29 jewel Poljot Deluxe in working order.

·What can you tell us about these.
I've never seen a Russian watch with the crown at two o'clock position.
the one on the right (with crown at 2 o clock position) is an Admiralskie from 1993 with caliber 2414A. Got it online from a British seller. The wobbly crown was actually by design. Forgot the actual practical purpose. Have not worn it in a while. Had the bund strap custom made here in the Philippines.
the one on the left is an Amphibia Generalskie from 1989 with caliber 2416. I think i got it online from a Ukrainian or Russian seller. I forgot. Head only. The nato strap was a gift from my brother in law.

·I got this Raketa end of Jan this year, not a fan of this case styling but it was too cheap to resist, paid just $NZ 5.00 for it it good running order though the day seems a bit misaligned, will get it checked out and serviced one day.
