    Well buddy, if you don't like Vostok, do not buy them. I, for one, would buy and keep it and wear it like a beater watch. You can also mod them to your hearts content: new bezel, new strap. Some even changed the small seconds Amphibian Scuba dude dial to a space themed one: the Luna dude. For less than $50, you have a lot of bang for the dollar. A bargain. Komandirskie is built like the old American vietnam era field watches: cheap enough to acquire and use for a very busy rough and tumble work and lifestyle. Ww2 American field watches were made by the bushels and would have similar qualities. Ted Baldesar gave a more informative review stating all the positives, including a few negatives. It's a quirky watch with a huge fan base. The movements are plain for two reasons: keep cost low, and the watch is built for use and abuse. The wobbly stem was built for combat troops in mind so you don't break the stem. Rolex is built for fools who like to be parted from their money . Clever marketing. Swiss watches used to be tool watches now they deliberately brand thenselves as luxury watches to survive the quartz crisis created by Seiko. You don't like a Vostok, return it. Let the rest of us buy a Vostok and enjoy it for everyday use. Want to buy a Swiss watch you can afford? Buy a hamilton. People belly ache about Seiko or Miyota movements , but others will buy and enjoy them. Vostoks can be regulated. To maintain accuracy, you have to be active. That's the catch and caveat. Chinese watches in the past were condemned up until recently for poor quality control. Vostok is not made for you. It's made for everyone else. I own a Kirovskie crab watch that was made many decades ago and still runs. I own a Pobeda powered Sturnanskie, and it still runs. A. RAKETA as well and still runs. Are the case and lume top quality ? No. But i still love wearing them. All 3 are hand wound mechanical. You are comparing watches like some people compare a VW to a porsche or BMW. THEY each serve their type of buyer in their own way. But they are distinct per their fan base wants and desires.

    The spinnaker is not a microbrand? Its owned by a Chinese company that has 10 brands under it belt, so all there watches brands are not microbrand? I bet if you add all of the watches the group spinnaker make will out sell Rolex. With prices for $100 to $1000's I'm sure they do. What do you think of the qaulity of finishing on the Zodiac? With £1600 or $300?

    Wow, it's amazing how some people can be so opinionated about things they've never even experienced firsthand. It's laughable that you think you're some kind of authority on watches just because you don't make videos about your Oris and Zodiac watches. How can you even compare them to G-shocks and Aliexpress knock-offs? You don't own them, you don't wear them, but you act like you know everything. The irony is that you're accusing me of spreading "wrong information" while you base your entire argument on assumptions and hearsay. And let's talk about getting "triggered"-the fact that you take the time to comment on every video just shows how much my content gets under your skin. If my videos are so laughable to you, why do you keep coming back? Maybe you should focus more on actually experiencing the watches you claim to know so much about instead of spewing nonsense in my comment section. Keep them coming?

    Well, I also own a Komanderski and I have to say that there are either people on KZread who love the watch or hate it and nothing in between. I'm a student and I personally love the watch. I can only speak from my point of view and yes I never had a watch that is worth over 200 dollars. But still, the tape is designed to hold and not to look good. I replaced it after a few weeks with a NATO strap and I would have worn the leather strap, or whatever it is, but still because it just tough as hell. Mine doesn't have the problem with the hands and runs at 30 seconds + a day, which is completely acceptable for me because I only paid 50 euros. I've gotten used to the crone and I think mine just looks really good. You have to keep in mind that this is an army watch that was built to withstand all kinds of things. The design has hardly changed in the 60 years and has probably been produced in the higher 7-digit quantities until now. I love mine, but thats just my opinion. :D

    TBH the OP has couple of fair points...the watch should be much better at that price or if Fossil is targeting the premium market. What is the point to use sapphire glass and downgrade the bezel to acrylic plastic? That brushing on the sides is appalling. Micro-brand- Compared to the examples shown,(Hamilton, Longines, Oris, Tag H... ) Zodiac is a micro-brand. History- Yes, very rich history back in the 50-60'..but then, it all went downhill. Remove the branding from that Spinnaker and the Zodiak, does it really look like a watch 5x the price?
