I don't know much about them, but they have quite a fan club over on Watchuseek...

You'll be ale to find out more over there.

I like the look of these, very original design and they are cheap as chips!

I think that they are pretty tough too, you can actually dive with them apparently. The finishing may not be the most refined, but that's to be expected for the price point.

See this recent thread over on TZ-UK:

Interesting.. Be good to hear what you think of them, Comrade.

 

[Sunburyboy93]

and the Komandirskie

Very good move on the NATO strap, I went through a phase with them but they are cheap, tough and I like the look...time keeping can be a little off but you can live with it.

The Amphibia, Nighthawk 2 as a great looking face I like it Steve.

Ooh, now those later two pics I like.
Really suit that NATO in that colour too.
Did you buy from UK?

And just noticed, I tuck the tail of my NATO strap in like the pictures. Does that mean someone else has small girly wrists like me?

Nice.

Nope, from Russia, the guy is called Victor, he is based in Moscow and goes by the username of Zenitar on E-Bay, he is the trusted source on all of the watch forums for Vostok watches.

Thanks for the link, those prices seem incredibly reasonable.
Have you bought from him before? Wondering what shipping is like etc.

Does anyone know where I can get a powder blue wet suit? I have my mother law knitting me a red beanie...

You won't be disappointed, these are great watches. I have 2 amphibians and both keep good time. The straps are the only thing that you might want to change, but by the look of it you will be using a NATO - good choice.

Very tempted by one of these (damn you all!). I like the addition of the green NATO strap, really sets them off nicely.
