I've quite exhausted my wish-list, with this fine Orbita.
It has cyrillic writings, also in the snap-on back
The automatic movement has 29 jewels (see picture of the seller)
And the watch on my wrist. It works well, the dial is bright and simple, so I like it very much

Well, I know only this is a 70-ies automatic watch of First Moscow Fabric. Following Mark Gordon, this is one of last marks used by 1MCh3 before adopting the Poljot name.Very nice watch
The moviment is 2415, very similar to the Kosmos moviment, but without date.
This markings are quite rare and difficult to catch... I employed almost 1 year looking for
In the picture, my Kosmos 2416 moviment.

Re: Orbita found
Excellent catch Vaurien. It's hard indeed to find one in such great condition. Congratulations!
just above sea level
Very nice. But how will you live with nothing on your wishlist?

There are new watches, I'd never dared to wish.
Lucidor is helping me in that...
