The gold-plated version of the popular Raketa 24 Hours World Time (see the chrome-plated watch here). This one is in used condition and the crystal is a bit hazy, but some polywatch would repair it quickly. Note that the “made in USSR” on the dial is curved, whereas it’s straight on the other watch – both are legit. The dial also sports the USSR State Mark of Quality. Just like on the chrome-plated watch, the outer bezel must be black.
