Vintage 1960s Raketa 23 Jewels Square Gold Soviet Watch

For sale is a beautiful vintage Raketa "Rocket" mechanical watch, produced by the Petrodvorets Watch Factory in the USSR during the late 1960s or early 1970s. This model features a distinct square "TV-style" case and a rare 23-jewel manual-wind movement (likely Caliber 2209), known for being one of the thinnest and most reliable movements produced by the Soviet Union. Details: --------- Movement: Manual wind, 23 Jewels (precision Soviet engineering). Case: Square gold-plated case with a classic textured dial. Origin: Made in the USSR (marked CCCP or Made in USSR at the bottom of the dial). Bracelet: Original/period-correct gold-tone textured metal band with a secure folding clasp. Condition: Excellent vintage condition with clear markers and original crown. The battery has died since it hasn't been in use in decades, however the watch worked perfectly when used. Collectors' Note: The 23-jewel square models are significantly rarer than the round versions, especially when paired with the original textured gold band.
