    I held my breath a bit when I popped the back off! I don't know if I was expecting the movement above or what, but I'm glad it's not what I saw!

    I personally know no answer for the no markings except under regulator, but I'm hoping someone will!

    Think it's more that it's probably a piece made after the fall of the ussr. Never really know what you can find in watches from that era . A lot of pieces just made with what was available

    I was wondering if that could be a possibility, a transition period piece.
