Yes, there are many cheaper dive models made from brass....but the issue is very simple, the brass Zlatoust is not dive proof.....the steel versions are dive proof to 300m. Many of the later Zlatousts were hardly used, also the underside of the watch being highly polished still is expected, it is against the skin of the wearer....not out in the elements....Zlatousts were not stainless steel, they were steel, nickel was used to stop rusting.

I can pull an example of yours, here is the exact same watch as yours!!
