Thank you for the info. Thanks to you I got mine working. It is from the Soviet era. I paid $35 on ebay and it is a war trophy from Ukraine. Ukrainian forces over ran a trench and picked this up and in turn sold it to me. It was probably this guys Dad or Grandpa's watch. They told me this at the jewelry store that works on watches how to wind it and all but, I forgot. They say if you are wearing it you shouldn't need to wind it so we'll see. With the funny costume on I thought you were gonna tell a joke. Here's one: What did the fish say when he hit the wall? He said "dam". lol That is an AI joke.

Very low resolution middle ground area between where it catches the spring, or screws onto the case, or changes the time. Not so easy on my watch.
