Vostok company story starts back in 1942, when one of the Moscow watch-making plants has been evacuated from Moscow to a little town Chistopol located on the Kama River. Defense equipment was the only company output during war years, but as soon as the war was over Vostok started to make mechanical wrist watches - the main production item ever since. In 1965 Vostok company was appointed an official supplier of watches for the Defense Department of the Soviet Union. This year marks the creation of the world-famous "Komandirskie" ("Commander") watch. Military watch grew very popular even with people who were unaware which end of the gun bullet comes off, mainly due to high precision, excessive reliability and durability. The appearance of the watch also contributes to its appeal - functional and clear-cut design invoked the feeling of belonging to the tough world of combat professional. The experience which Vostok gained through development of the army watch was the foundation of our next special watch - "Amphibian". This impressive timepiece in stainless-steel case endured the depth of 2000 meters - kind of a wrist submarine. Success of the professional watches determined the company's present philosophy - to create mechanical watches maintaining precise timekeeping at any temperature, in any environment, surviving heavy pressure and blows. The viability of the chosen strategy is now time-proven. A vast multitude of people both in Russia and abroad boasting "Vostok" watches and various international prizes awarded for high quality and commercial success testify to this. In 1996 Vostok started a partnership with US "Capital Trading" company aiming to create a new generation timepiece.

Great value for the money
Great original 24h design! It looks exactly like in the pictures, good quality design, the bracelet is fine, although some were complaining about it. It runs great, it was nicely factory regulated, just a few sec per day deviation. The rotating bezel is fine although it hasn't rotating steps, but it's quite sturdy and doesn't move by itself more than other models. 32 jewels, great mechanism, you can also manually wind it up which is great. As a downturn the phosphorus on the dial is not that powerful in the dark as other models. It's a collection must-have, russians used to have a great watch industry in the 80's, I hope they will maintain the tradition.

Rock Solid Watch, Slightly uncomfortable strap.
The main Time-piece of the watch Keeps Absolutely perfect time, I have had it for a couple months now and it hasn't varied by more than a few seconds. It Keeps itself well wound even with my somewhat sedentary Lifestyle.I only have 1 Minor Gripe with the whole thing, and that is, Probably a Subjective thing though I feel it is worth mentioning. The Strap Is somewhat "Itchy" on my wrist, Which could just be a personal skin sensitivity, It does at least do its job and feels Secure, so I shan't complain much, At most I'd remove 0.25 of a star for it and since I can't I'll leave it as a full 5 star, a new strap is a Neglegable cost afterall.TL:DR Great Watch, Strap may a little lacking but easy to replace. (4.75/5) Highly Recommended Timepiece.

Quirky, hardwearing, and stylish!
The 24 hour dial is something I really like and got used to very quickly. The watch is spot on but was running at around -20 per day out of the box. Quite simple to regulate and it’s now running at +1 per day! Strap is awful so I swapped my that out for a decent nato strap. It’s not been off my wrist since I got it. My favourite everyday watch!

Excellent delivery service. Unique, timeless watch.
Supplier: Arrived 10 days early than the estimated time, even we were just before Xmas. Excellent service.The watch is a modern build of Russian and Soviet history. There is uniqueness, simplicity where it can be, robustness and beautiful design. It is my first Vostok, but I am confident it won't be the last one.It is impossible to get a better watch for the same price. A watch that puts a smile when you see it.

Difficulty returning faulty watch
I received this watch for Christmas but it has stopped working 2 months later. Until then I was really pleased with it. I am unable to return it for repair or replacement as I am over the 30 day period. Amazon.uk is not helpful as it just tells me to contact the seller but when I try it just tells me " we're sorry, we were unable to load your order". This is probably not a fault of the seller but more with the fact that I can't get more helpful information from Amazon.uk. I would like to be contacted directly by either the seller or Amazon.uk with instruction of how to return this item due to the fact that it is after the 30 day period and I do not have the "return" button available to me anymore.
