A couple of weeks ago I saw the new Vostok 1967 Amphibia over on WUS. As soon I as I saw it I knew I needed one! It came today in record time from Moscow, and man am I impressed. It was way more expensive than the standard Vostok, but IMHO head and shoulders above the regular Amphibia. Totally massive case and a well constructed solid link bracelet, to me it screams "Russian" :D I won't have time tonight or tomorrow to size it, so I'll post some wrist shots on Monday. Here's a stock shot from Smirs for now, but the pic does not do this chunk o' diver any justice! Attachment: vostok67.jpg (Downloaded 164 times)

I saw some of those watches last summer in Russia. They were quite impressive. And, some were big too.

It is a monster, no doubt about it! I compared it next to my Formex and it is comparable in size. It is a limited editiion too, only 1967 made of each model. 120 click bezel, non-hacking, handwindable, signed screw down crown, and no date. That is the one thing that always drove me crazy about my Russians, the "quick set date" that takes forever to set. I can't wait to get it sized :D Cheers, Griff

I got it from Smirs.com, they are the only ones I know of that have these LE Vostoks. Free shipping too hand6.gif The bracelet does look like tank tracks, I didn't think of that! I'll be sizing it tomorrow, can't wait to wear it! Cheers, Griff
