    A month or so ago I saw a ....more expensive watch with those on, also from the same era, but iirc with a better reason for having electrical signs!

    The gold markers and hands give a glow to the whole dial. I can never decide if the silver dial has a hint of gold in their, or if it's just tone from the hands etc

    Ca. 1961-62 vintage Strela 3017.

    No cosmonaut ever walked on the Moon, but a Russian probe was the first to image the far side. To the victor goes the spoils, so the Russians got first dibs on naming the craters. The blue pencil tip points at Gagarin Crater, and the green one at Komarov Crater. Komarov is in a fashioable corner of the larger Moscovite Crater. Both would be easily viewable with a small telescope if that side of the Moon was ever refaced towards the Earth.

    Ironically, whilst Armstrong Crater is on the "correct" side of the Moon, it's a tiny little thing and needs a large telescope to be seen.
