    The choice is hard between the new AirNautic 24 pilot and the NOS Yantar AirNautic II from Mitch

    Re: If you ever wanted a NEW Yantar.....

    I like the design a bit better on the original...date at the bottom, better graphics on the dial, better looking hands. I also like the slightly smaller size of the original (These watches, being perfectly cylindrical in shape, wear much larger than their size would suggest).
    However, the original watches had AR coating on the outside of their crystals, which would show every mark.
    Also, the new watches (AirNautic) are available with hooded or open lugs.
    All said...they are both really nice

    But the original is very rare on the market now so it must be my first choice, even f it's more expensive (1500-1700 u$) than the new one. Have dropped an email to Mitch to keep one for me
