I just had it serviced by a local watchmaker.  It was having old age issues.  Purring like a kitten now!

 

Thanks :thumbsup2:

Doesn't get much more unique or cool than this - discs for hands?!? Any idea of the year it was made/designed?

:D 

The ring disc is the minute hand, the solid disc is the hour.

I believe the first designs for the Raketa Copernicus's came out around 1979-1980. Haven't figured when mine was made. But definitely before 1991 because it's labeled made in USSR.

It was the cheapest working one I encountered so far, £38. Still trying to figure out what made it so cheap...
