Just a guess that it was part of a larger system not intended for ordinary photographic use, and special-ordered from the factory with minor modifications.

What shutter speed do you get when set the shutter-speed control to “-“?

Really interesting, serial number should start with the last two year digits.
About speed marks no idea.

I sent these two questions to the Russian Rangefinder Telegram channel, if there is an answer, they will tell.

Thank you for prompt response and help.
When I first saw timer-knob I thought it was replaced from a Zorki.
After that, I saw another Leningrad at ebay, identical to mine.
That's the reason why I'm asking now.
Regards,
VladAlex
