it's good to have some sort of catalogue of factory models to identify if something is a frankenwatch or not, or just a reference for a factory model
I guess this is more handy for buying online rather than at thrift stores though
for example, this site is a pretty complete catalogue of vintage soviet watches in factory configurations: https://mroatman.wixsite.com/watches-of-the-ussr/raketa

I'll try my best both in terms of photos and additional Raketas
I don't even have any of the trvely quirky ones yet like the Raketa "perpetual" calendar or the 24-hour Raketa Polar Expedition

that's because "P" is cyrillic for "R"
there have also been some export models with "Raketa" written on the dial

I feel like the stubby thick hands compliment the oversized numerals well. That's why the frankens with a different handset lose a lot of charm.

nice "crab" anon, very pretty
what other soviet watches have you got? I only have these two raketas, but I might also get something with the nice and thin 2209 movement. maybe a Luch

I like Raketa, they're probably my favorite Russian watch brand

You guys like my vintage Raketas? I put them on black lizard straps I got for cheap because of some glitch.
