Update. This watch was fast 30 sec/day. It is now about 7sec fast a day. Don’t know how the heck it runs better but I’m happy with that. Russian mechanisms have their own brains I guess. Thx for watching to all 🤝🥃

[@owen1079]

Mine too! Only a minute fast per day at the moment after 3 months use.

[@LeoVinteler]

@@owen1079 that’s bad. Open it. Ajust it. Play with it brother. That’s what watches are all about. See my vid on adjusting the time on a Orient. Same principle 🤝🥃

[@jamesgatz1922]

So it went from 30sec a day to 7min a day fast? Great video!

[@LeoVinteler]

@@jamesgatz1922 from 30 to 7 seconds a day.

@@LeoVinteler I have nine Vostok Watches in my watch collection. These watches are usually not well regulated when they leave the factory and gain time. I think they do this to save money. I've taken all of mine to my local Watchmaker to be regulated, and after that, I've noticed that they keep excellent time!

[@matthewreviews4981]

I love Vostok’s. I’ve had mine for a few months now and it’s great. I made a couple of videos on it too!

[@LeoVinteler]

Cool I’ll check them out. Cheers 🤝🍻

[@airportworker_fra]

Such a great video again. What I like most is, that you take your time and not rushing. I can really understand what you are saying :) The Vostok is really cool, too.

Well I'm seeing this on August 18th at 6:30AM, so no "wodka" 😂👍 but I just saw this watch last night on Meranom website!! Amazing how that works! Good video 👍👍!

[@LeoVinteler]

Vodka is best before breakfast. Cleans the stomach 😂😂😂😂. Thx for watching and ye get one. It’s a very cool piece. 🤝🍻

[@larryduncan3461]

Leo I always enjoy your videos. I enjoy the low key presentation. It’s relaxing and it feels like we’re having a drink together and sharing thoughts on watches. What could be better? I have a Scuba Dude with a beautiful blue dial on a Nato strap. I love the look but I have to say I’m not a fan of the wonky crown design. It’s definitely a challenge to wind and set the date.

[@LeoVinteler]

Hey brother, thank you. The crown, Yes it does take some getting used to. The date is a pain, I have it on my winder so didn’t have to change it again. Thx for watching my friend. 🙋🏻‍♂️🍻

[@Dave062YT]

Very nice I've ordered one [my 8th amphibia case shape] Because the guy I saw review it had it on a super engineer bracelet and it looked amazing .I've ordered one too/

[@MultiSculpt]

Hi Leo, love the way you present your beautiful watches very cool. You're putting me in the mood to take a drink and spark up a huge Havana. I have just bought one of these crazy watches the same model as this. Can you let me know where you bought the black strap. From Scotland

[@LeoVinteler]

Hi there. Light it up 😎🙋🏻‍♂️ The black sailcloth is from Artem straps. Enjoy your new watch. Cheers 🍻

[@owen1079]

Picked one up this year & it's my first Vostok. Mine runs a little fast but I really like it. Just wish I knew about the annoying date change & free spinning bezel that I wish clicked.

[@LeoVinteler]

It’s never gonna click on a bidirectional bezel. I like it loosy goosy 😂😂. I don’t dive so it’s ok. 🤝🍻

[@owen1079]

@@LeoVinteler I just didn't know it was bi-directional when I got it (my first vostok) and just used to my sub, seiko, and lorier divers all clicking and assumed this was the same/standard. I still love the watch though and it actually gets more looks and compliments than my more expensive watches! Thanks for the reply mate, take care.

[@LeoVinteler]

@@owen1079 take care too my friend.

Vostok maybe are the cheapest all in house watches out here but this doesn't mean that are trash, they are real deal.

[@LeoVinteler]

Agreed. They are the best deals for all in-house pieces. 🤝🍻

[@halfpastblog]

Maybe this should be my first Vostok?

[@LeoVinteler]

I don’t regret it. Really nice piece 🙋🏻‍♂️🍻

[@owen1079]

This is my first Vostok and overall I love it. A few negatives: the loose spinning bezel is useless, acrylic dome scratches extremely easily, bracelet has a lot of play in it & no micro-adjustments, date change sucks, and mine has a *very* sharp edged case and runs up to a minute fast a day.

[@LeoVinteler]

@@owen1079 you funny 😁 😀😀😀. Sounds like a horrible watch. 😁. Has negatives but also positives. I want people to understand that you can not to expect perfection. Example: J just got a Tudor Black Bay 58. You think it’s perfect? No. Thank you Owen, you made me smile 😀 I

[@ModernandVintageWatches]

I come back to this video after i have seen a fully lume dial in real life, although is a good thing at first, initial enthusiasm...after a while whole dial lumed can become a burden. It's not stealthy at all, maybe at night sometimes it's annoying.

[@LeoVinteler]

Well the lume does not last enough to be annoying 😂😂😂. Still enjoying this watch allot

A diver watch that is actually hazardous to dive with thanks to the loose bi-directional bezel. Sorry for the stereotypes but how very Russian :D Also 30s/day is quite extreme for a watch with no hacking.

[@LeoVinteler]

I know right, no stereotypes here friend, let’s face it, if you dive to 200M you would use other avenues of keeping time and depth. I understand what you say tho, good point Cheers 🍻

[@alekswanson7309]

Heard that it is supposed to tighten under pressure like the crystal and caseback. And adding to that, I was wondering about the complaints about the lume, and I think, when you're diving so deep that you can't see your watch, you're probably having some sort of light source, sooo you can just put some light on that watch and check how much time you still got.

[@LeoVinteler]

@@alekswanson7309 you right. The design is supposed to compress under pressure. The lume, it’s just a showstopper😂. People dive these days with serious equipment, don’t rely on a watch for time. I think. Thank you sir 🙋🏻‍♂️🍻

[@russellbreedon9482]

stop smacking your lips so much, its cringe
