Ha! I've noticed our 'tastes' have a bit of crossover. I saw this on ebay and liked it, but I think now I've got it the face is a bit brown and dated looking. If it were blue or black I think I'd like it more. Or maybe not.
It's supposed to be water resistant to 200m. In a typically Russian way it uses a big sintered gasket and the pressure of the water seals the caseback against the gasket and pushes the acrylic crystal in .5mm.
I bought another Vostok recently as well, a Komandirskie. Both of these watches need 18mm straps, which look a bit skinny on it. Any strap suggestions?
