trailboss99 994 Posted December 29, 2010 Yes the new Vostocks are out standing designs and I'd be happy to wear one. The only real problem is deciding which one to get. Looks like tritium gas tube lume too, cool. Col. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sconehead 5 Posted December 29, 2010 You got to love those Russian watches...I made a deal many moon's ago when I made a straight swap with my old military issue watch for this, ...I have provenance which states it was owned by Nikita Sergeyevich Khrushchev and have archived pics of him actually wearing it during the defense of Stalingrad...I've had the cyrillic engraving translated on the caseback, seem's like it was a present from Uncle Joe in 1937 congratulating the birth of his daughter Elena. ...here's a pic of the watch I traded, ...I think I got a good deal, what do you reckon?
