Whilst out riding picked a piece of leatherette and on the other side were these enamel badges.

Seems to me Russian. Can anyone translate or shed any light on them 🙂

About 20mm in size.

I don't think they are ID badges.

Take a clearer picture on a white background and google image search. Might show up something similar?

Asked a Russian friend, yep Sevastapol, and oddly the Minsk Watch making plant (very STW), and appropriately for us accident prone numpties, the badge given to blood donors!

I knew STW would not fail.

I guess the last badge is probably the wallet/purse maker that seemed to be attached to in the past.

Looks like Seadog concluded that one 🙂 Thanks.

PS It does seem like a bunch of badges a Russian stw member would have.

Last one is Leningrad I think, but it doesn't look like standard Russian Cyrillic.

kelron,
Correctamundo! It says Leningrad, in standard Russian Cyrillic - as it would look if handwritten. Printed and written Russian look completely different.

OP - Nice badges btw
