I ordered a Rodina automatic and I can’t wait 😍😍😍 hoping it will arrive tomorrow.

I have a working Sekonda and a fualty but both I have been practising watchmaking on and this Rodina has been serviced so I won’t need to mess with it and hopefully won’t have that incessant itch to take it apart.

      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

      Post pics of your collection when you can

      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.
