FS: Russian Issued Navy Zlatoust NOS complete w box & papers

Hi folks,

On sale today is another catch and release watch for me, the legendary Zlatoust, issued in 1968 to the Russian Navy (or possibly the German Navy Kampfschwimmer, as evident in the photos)

This massive canteen watch measures a whopping 60mm, and around 280 grams in weight, certainly not for the faint of heart!

This particular piece was sold to me from a serious collector as a NOS, complete with the papers box and unworn original strap. Rare find certainly and not the "reissued" or knock-offs you have seen on sale occasionally. This is the real deal issued in 1968.

Here are the actual photos of the exceptionally piece (beast):
