VostokVOSTOK | Amphibia 420526 Sea Captain Automatic Self-Winding Diver Wrist Watch
A**.
The classic. With the Zissou dial.
Vostok Amphibia. It's a classic. It's been to space. Run it over with a truck, it will work. Dive as deep as a human can go, it will work. A quirky and interesting throwback, a vintage watch you can still buy new. And if you are on Team Zissou, this dial will go great with your official red beanie and stationary. Do not judge this watch by its price, it is a seriously capable tool watch with history. It has some quirks, like the floppy crown (which is actually a safety feature to protect the movement) and it takes a second to become familiar with the technique of smoothly winding the watch without either screwing the crown back in or popping it to the time setting position. But once you get it, it's easy. Just be delicate and feel it in your fingertips and listen for the pleasant winding sound. If you wear it all the time you probably won't have to worry about winding it often. Setting the date can also be a pain if you're several days off, look up a video on YouTube. There's a sort of quick set feature but it is also a bit more time consuming than a modern quick setting date function. It's all part of the weird charm though. Definitely get one of these Vostoks in a dial and case style that catches your eye and join the cult of the Scuba Dude. They have a 10 year service interval, it will run forever like a stubborn old truck. Final word of wisdom: Beware the steel bracelet....(seriously, don't even trouble yourself with the bracelet.)

Less than one year old.
This watch worked well for the first month and then slowly lost time. The “automatic” winding feature is not a real thing.Great looking thing that will not tell time is not what I was hoping for.

This watch may be on the B-Team, but it's the B-Team captain!
The Zissou watch is really neat. It's a traditional three hand watch, and a little smaller than typical divers. The model I received had great level of details on the dial, a tightly moving bezel, and a date complication. It's surprisingly well built for the price, and while it likely won't be the star of my watch collection, it's certainly a main character!

It’s was better than I was expecting.
Watch its self is nice for the money. It keeps ok time for what it is. I suggest spending a little extra and get a quality strap for it.

Es lo que esperaba por el precio
Me agradó el reloj y es lo que esperaba luego de ver muchas páginas y videos, solo no me gustó la caja en la que lo enviaron que era de cartón corriente blanco sin logos de ningún tipo ni texto. No obstante por lo que he visto de estos relojes las cajas originales con imágenes y texto son también muy sencillas por lo que posiblemente terminaría donde terminó la caja en la que venía. Muy contento con la compra y se siente bien en la muñeca.

Haven’t even had two months and it stopped working.
Originally left a glowing review of this watch. I haven’t even had it two months and it doesn’t work anymore. I wind it, nothing. I wear it, nothing. Don’t get scammed listen to the guy above me

A good sturdy dive watch that is performing as advertised.
I am very satisfied with the quality of this watch. Definitely a real value for the money.! The company has great customer service and has been very helpful in making sure I received the watch even in these most difficult of times.
