    Laughing Caught many more CCCP Vostoks

    Hello guys,

    I am a lucky and happy guy these days. I caught many more CCCP Vostok divers today at baoguosi-one of the places I hunt those vintage watches. Here are the most interesting dials IMHO. I will post more. Please comment. Is there a rare one among them? There are two MO CCCP, and a rare one with crown at 4 hour. This guy is from the north near Russia, and he only came to Beijing once in half a year. I hope to see him more often.

    Cheers,

    Zhang

    Here are some more. I think those with embossed hour markers are very nice. I was told that watch dials with a red star were for soldiers. Is this correct?

    Thanks! The 4h-crown one even has an original ZIM S/S band with a price 6 rubles stamped on it. I also bought a few other non-Vostok watches from him, all for an average price of RMB 60(6 euro) each. But one of them is dead, so that it is AS IS price. This guy went home, and I don't know when I could meet him again. I will miss him. I believe I bought all the Vostok divers in his watch piles.

    Here are the other watches. The gold Reketa has a nice dial, and the Almaz is not too bad for 6 euro.
    As Chascomm said very correctly that at this rate, I am going to open a private museum soon.

    Soviet, you are a very lucky guy! The one with crown at 4 is a rare pearl. And the other ones are quite interesting, especially for that ridicolous price. :gold

    Please contact me if you meet that guy again...
