1955 Pobeda in the middle of some minor restoration. Needs a careful clean around the hands but the dial is nearly as good as it'll get. The black spots are where the lacquer has been holed so no luck removing those. Through some miracle I've managed to get my hands on an original waterproof Chistopol crown and the right crystal but they're with customs right now.

A watch similar (the same hermetic case and movement but without outlined hour indices) to this one was smuggled onto Sputnik-4 mission 1961, 'worn' by Chernushka the dog. Both dog and watch returned safely.
