Review: Beautiful piece of history ! - 1.) The watch is beautiful and well finished. 2.) I checked for 24 hours and it is accurate minute by minute. I have not checked how many seconds it is +/- but I know that if it is not accurate we can open the back and adjust the watch using a tiny liver present there. 3.) Wound movement runs for around 42 hours. 4.) Strap is not high quality but it can be used. I am wearing it to office where I work as an Engineer for a multinational bank. 5.) Case diameter - 40mm, lug to lug - 44.45 approximately 6.) Bezel does not click but it can be used to time. It is metal on metal friction based bezel. 7.) Screw down crown. 8.) Plastic crystal. 10.) Available for around 43$ on Meranom.com but there delivery will take much longer. I love this watch for the history associated with it and the fact that it comes with the original 2414A movement which was designed around 1965.
Review: Great bang for your buck, if it actually shows up - Update #2: after canceling my refund, the seller has stopped responding without sending me a replacement. It's been 5 weeks since the refund has been canceled and I've even had desertcart reach out on my behalf, but still no response. As far as i can tell I've been scammed. Be cautious if you find yourself in s similar position as described below. Update: The seller replied to my inquiry a day after I wrote this review, and offered to send a replacement. It seems like USPS lost the package, according to the updated tracking information I was provided with. I have since canceled my refund and am more than happy to own two of these watches. Since my only complaint was not the seller's fault, and I love the watch, I bumped this up to 5 stars. I ended up ordering two of these watches. The first one was purchased in the middle of October, and as of January 20th has not shown up. The only tracking information I have received is that is was picked up by the carrier on the 6th of November. I tried reaching out to the seller to see if they could give me a shipping update, but after a week of waiting for a response I've now requested a refund. The second watch was purchased in December and delivered only a few days later. I had noticed the desertcart listing promising a 4 day delivery time and jumped on it since it also said there was only one left in stock. Not sure what the deal was there, but I'm glad I did. I really really like the watch that was actually delivered. It gains about 20 seconds a day, which is fine for me. I work in a hazardous environment where any spark hazards could cause an explosion, so I needed a mechanical watch to wear on the job, but I didn't want to spend a ton of money and had read that vostok makes reasonably accurate cheap watches. This is exactly that. For what it's meant to be, I like everything about it. It also seems reasonably robust. In my average work day it pretty regularly gets knocked up against any number of things, and though impacts seem to cause a momentary pause in the movement of the watch, it picks right back up. Bottom line is that this is a great watch for the price, if it shows up.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How do you set the date?**
A: This is a bit "tricky" - this watch ahs an old fashion movement - but it works!   To change the dat - you have to move the hour/minute hand until the date changes. Then -- move the hands BACK beyond 9-hour mark AND again move forward until the date changes again after 12-hour mark.  And, continue to move back and forward until you get to the correct date.  Remember -move hands back as soon as the date changes.

**Q: May i know the Power reserve?**
A: Power reserve: 36 hrs

**Q: After reading the reviews and seeing dissatisfaction with the length of time this watch lasts ... does your company have a warranty?**
A: The watches are very durable.  I have that is 8 years old, scuba dude.
Unfortunately with freight both ways on an unwarranted watch it will be cheaper to replace verses repair.

**Q: Can I change the band to nylon? If yes, is that 18mm?**
A: Yes, band width: 18 mm

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ great watch and conversation starter
*by R***U on January 18, 2021*

I've found the nostalgia of a mechanical watch from the cold war era, (the product internal workings was designed to work after a nuclear exchange) 1965 tech. There balance of loose tolerances and workmanship is beyond compare. It keeps excellent time, real head turner. Winding it, setting day, date, time takes some getting use to. The old school Soviet features adds to its charm. The instructions are in Russian so I recommend you Google an English translation online. For the money, its great value.
