  1. I have one and my father has one. I have to say their "shock protection" is awesome. So far, after 5 years they are still running great. I used to wear mine riding ADV Motorcycling / Dirt bike, and it survived the vibrations and spills.

    yes they wont full apart even after dropping it iv found and check out that thick backcase rubber seal! these are like wearing a submarine on your wrist! :thumbsupsmileyanim:

  2. I love my older amphibian (labeled Boctok). I found it N.O.S. in a thrift store, with original box and papers, apparently it was built in 1990.

    Very dependable, I wear it snowboarding and it has survived many an impact and drop into snow banks.

    It looks great on an original Bond nato, it just so happens to have some of all the colors in the watch. It is sized perfectly for my 7.5" wrists, although I am vehemently opposed to the current huge watch trend.

    You have to hand it to them they sure love colourful and interesting dials there are tanks,jets submarines you name

    super watch :thumbsupsmileyanim::thumbsupsmileyanim:

  3. Can someone measure the dial size on it, will a tudor dial definitely fit?

    This dial is 26mm fits great!but most reps are 28mm or 29mm i think! the tudor dial should be 26mm too

    this project was made using the case and movement from the 1680 redsub from puretime 198usd no work was done to the rehaunt

    but the yuki insert wouldent fit over the crystal so the crystal had to be trimmed but not noticable!my older 5513 case was too big to hold the dial and needed a new rehaunt!

  4. Nice vostok i have seen this reissue in person and it is well made and reliable i have a couple of vintage military vostoks and other (soviet) period

    watches that i purchased from the ukraine !

    Here are mine!

    I have since clean and serviced these watches they are all unrestored and the original lum is still bright

    even on the 1956 rodina none of these watches cost more than 75usd

    sorry i dident mean to hijack your post! Great looking watch! Aero.

    The watches are also very watertight and passed the rated depths easily!

  5. No legitimate person tries to sell a $2000 watch with such bad photos. No dial shot!?

    You are right and he is trying to explain his way out on the only feedback ( negative)there should be rules on ebay about selling items over a certain amount without feedback or previous track record

  6. Im no expert but i would leave that alone! and i would never buy from a seller that has no feedback and is a new seller

    And could take your money and cancel his account only to open in another name! scam? i wouldent want to be his first prey!

    buying gens on the internet is risky so you have to do your home on the sellers background (previous sales good feedback ect)

  7. Iv been reshaping the crown guards tonight using the gen as patten not an easy thing to do iv found, looking much better but got to do something with that oversized crown! i will post photos as soon as i can! i also fitted the 1680 bracelet until i can find a folded bracelet!

    Some more pics including reshaped cg,s still with (oversized) crown though!
