For some reasons I cannot explain, I love reading about and watching videos about cool watches. Possibly because I'm an engineer because have never been a collector or buyer. IIt was my 33 year olds son's bday so I decided a mechanical watch would be a nice present. The decision was pretty easy and even though the price is high by Vostok standards, the inventory is complete and the delivery was fast. And seriously, $170 for an automatic deep sea chronograph is an incredibly good deal.
The watch arrived promptly and is beautiful. He has been wearing it for a week with no issues. Despite some reviewers, he is perfectly happy with the metal bracelet and there is no issue with the movement. I'm in love with the thing too and considering another just because I like it. I also see a ladies version that I've never seen anywhere else and thinking about that for my daughter in law.
Very happy with the purchase!
