 This finally got here, so a couple of quik pics follow. So far, I like it. The strap and deployant seems comfortable, with not much weight in the watch itself. I still have to translate the Russian manual...:shock:

 Definitely a nice exterior upgrade for the sturdy 31 jewel Vostok movement inside.  Amfibia line has several distinct designs - this one with the internal bezel really caught my eye...

Thanks Oscar...  it is a departure from the somewhat harsh lines of the rest of the Vostok line. They also have one in all orange (dial and strap) but I thought the 'splash' of orange worked a little better. :cool:

 I like the look of this one and the orange is right up my alley. Enjoy it. It looks like a nice Ruskie a bit off the beaten path.
