What model is that you're wearing, tempted to find another if they did any other colours.

I don't think there is a model number. Here is a 1955 Ad.

The only other model I've seen is a gold plated case one. They turn up very occasionally on Ebay, I don't think they made them for long.

OK, now I'm asking my Soviet watch friend to help me find one of these watches. These are just too cool.

I have now fallen into a rabbit hole, the Soviet watch dial designs are amazing. So far liking the designs from Raketa, Poljot and Slava.
