Vostok Komandirskie K-34 Review
I'm not a huge fan of Russian watches but have a Vostok from foghorn I quite like so thought I'd give this one a shot. It arrived on a terrible factory strap and the rotor screw was loose (common on this model). Had it tightened up and seems to run decent, -6 seconds per day. The Vostok 2426 movement makes a clicking noise that I have read is somehow normal for this watch...
On the larger end for me at 42mm and a bit thick but wears nicely. 20mm lugs. I've seen it on a brushed Watchadoo which I happen to have but am trying it on a strap.
The 8 o'clock crown rotates the inner bezel and GMT hand is tied to the hour hand. Domed mineral crystal. Lume dial is neat but fades very quickly after charging. Overall it's a fun watch unlike anything else in my collection.

The strap is a Jack Foster Horween and is very supple.
Очень хорошо!
