Supposedly guaranteed to 200m, comrades! Rotating bezel, thick domed crystal, double-lock crown, RUS2446 (?) movement. Have a look:

Crack it open & have a look inside. "B", for "Vostok" ("Boctok", in cyrillic):

Interesting how the case-back fits together; one piece? Nyet! Two pieces.

Sorry about the fuzzy pics--hand held kitchen shots right after I got it. Excited enough to go out and get some treats from the Motherland. Dasvi

Cool watch! It looks serious!

Vostok and Poljot are "lot of bang for the bucks" :)

On eBay you can buy vintage Soviet watches for almost nothing... Lots of rubbish, but some nice vintage military pieces.. Check out the "Sthurmanskie" Chronograps.. Issued to the USSR Airforce navigators. They use a Valjoux 7734 copy movement.
