I meant to get some pics today, it was the day from he-- mistake.gif
I just got a chance to size it yesterday, quick and easy for a perfect fit.  The bracelet is truly massive, nothing like any Vostok I have ever had.  The only way you know it is one is from the typical floppy crown, though it screws in quite well.
I set and wound it yesterday, running well within 10 sec/day though I am not totally sure as it doesn't hack.  The dial is such a deep blue, depending on your angle it looks black, sometimes purple, but in full sunlight an awesome navy color.  The markers are all outlined/applied as well, not the standard Vostok dial.  I hear on the WUS Russian forum that the lume actually lasts longer than 5 minutes too hand6.gif

Tomorrow, I gotta take pics tomorrow!

Cheers,
