A classic design that was in use for quite a few years. The pentagon stamp on the movement means it could possibly be from the early '60s (can't make out the date on the passport) which would make it a rare one, in that condition.Dial Side as requested. Bought this watch yesterday. I did like the design and always was after one like that.

Thanks for that insight, comrade.Nice watch :-!
If I am not mistaken, the Passport is indeed also valid as certificate of warranty: on the other side (not shown on the photo) there should be the list of conditions.
On the far left side of your passport the paper seems to show sign of a tear: that's where the "Ticket n°1" was supposed to be.
If I understand it right it had to be taken away in case of a warranty repair, proving that your watch when new had undergone some kind of intervention.
Here are the pictures of a (presumably) complete certificate of mine, so you can compare:

Vimpels were made from 1961 to 1963. This is the best you can get in terms of when it was done.il num. seriale sul movimento e' 0124321 ... vorrei capire se si riesce a risalire al preciso anno di fabbricazione ... e se vuol dire che e' il 124.321simo prodotto
I Vimpel sono stati realizzati dal 1961 al 1963. Questo è il meglio che puoi ottenere in termini di quando è stato fatto.
