So what do we think of this ?

Correct movement
Original low crystal
Working spot on.
Not sure about the dial , although there is a pic in Alexander shorokhoff ' s book
What do you think.

well looking in juri book the dial looks more like a 3-6-9 dial the 24hrs seem to do ships /subs more then tanks and that dial centre is deffo on a 3-6-9 dial as looking at it in juri now so hmmm not sure BUT for the right price not sure would overly care about that

£40

Even if I change the dial for correct one didn't think that was bad

£40 for a 24hr is fair for condition

Dial appears as though Raketa had a 'liason' with a Vostok , and this is the result
The 24's are getting pricier so a good find.
