Its no secret that I am a socialist, I hope that with my posts and replies that others may follow. If you like what I have to say I would recommend checking Cowbee's comprehensive list credit to comrade @Cowbee@lemmy.ml for they're work

  • I've heard in Ukraine they have massive parts bins and spend their days assembling frankenwatches to sell, some of them I am fine with but I've seen awful custom dials.

    Spotting on your deluxe, it looks original but is that crown a little longer or is it the 12 o-clock index?

    Bueatiful collection though, the one on the left looks factory new

  • I will try and get some clearer macros of the dial later to post here. Abit quirky and seems to be due to wear rather than stylistic, some of the numerals are missing their infill.

  • Pretty sure they are known as "the crab" for the lugs, love the utilitarian design, what actually turned me on to soviet watches is they lack arrogance and are more tools than jewellery.

    Sick you posting a pic here? Is it running? And were you able to by local? I see loads coming out of Ukraine for a very fair price but import tax and customs bump it up way too much to be a good deal.

  • I believe 1962/1964.

    This model was a fairly short run being the USSRs first foray into an automatic watch.

    It even has the original First Moscow Watch Factory logo

  • Very sound advice, I bought a faulty Sekonda deluxe 2209 movement to tinker with and have spares on hand for my working 2209 but depending on price AliExpress movements could work great and just to have something to strip and rebuild over and over without fear of loosing jewels, stripping screws.

  • You obviously lack self awareness and maybe social awareness too, so you may of not noticed the month long public back lash taking place when national service had been discussed by the Tories. It felt very real to many of us. As for labour, its a hunch and based in historical materialism, and an increased military propaganda. Large wars need soldiers, if the propaganda doesn't work then national service will.

    War isn't for the working class, we have had no choice in the matter, and now with media spinning narratives we are manipulated into a pro war position to feed our tax's and lives into the military industrial complex this will make the greedy few a little richer.

    So I am anti war, murdering each other is a grim idea for me.

    The Israel Palestine war, my stance is the workers on both sides need a revolt and to overthrow the elite in their society.

    Russia also needs to revolt and overthrow their government.

    These two ideas won't happen though, as global superpowers won't want to harm the statuesque where a global revolution could take place.
