Based Meihualu anon if you're still here. I haven't been checking these threads but finally thought to do an archive search. Glad you got your watch safely. Looking again your case is actually different than the ugly one mine came with and it looks not too bad. This pic is after I swapped it into the same case as the WUS example. The caseback should open with a regular caseback wrench around the polygonal edges, although the ball might work too. Movement isn't really worth servicing if it works fine, or buy some other cheap tongji movements/watches to swap over. I don't know that the age of collecting VCMs is over because you never hear about them, especially given the demanding process as you mention, so they'll probably continue to slowly be listed, meanwhile my other expertise in Soviets is a fucking expensive competitive mess these days.

Grats, senpai. You'll be like the 4th copy of that watch I've ever seen, just after mine which you probably saw, although I haven't looked in years for others. I was worried about functionality at first too but it's such a cheap movement it would cost a few bucks to swap the from another if it arrived truly fucked, but it looks to be in fantastic shape, that's the important part. Still think that case is ugly though, which is why I swapped mine. I recommend getting a claw winder tool though because these tiny crowns suck ass.
