Got my MSAR this evening. Was debating on this vs. the 41mm went with the smaller due to budget. Wrist size just shy of 7in. It’s definitely a smaller watch, wears light on the wrist. Only been wearing it an hour still wondering if i made the right choice. Reckon I’ll get used to it as I go. Fit and finish on this thing is amazing though. You can tell it can take a beating and keep on ticking. Feels smaller when i look at it than the pic makes it look…

Picked this up recently from Scubadude. My first was a vintage 3aka3 Komandirskie. Went with the Zissou Amphibia for the second. Got rid of the metal bracelet pretty quickly. Had it on a Rubber strap for a bit but just wasn’t feeling it. Settled for a cheapo Amazon black/red/green. Think I got lucky as this thing is spot on with iphone after 2 days. Used the vostok hack to hack it where I wanted. Great little watches for sure kind of bit me with the budget automatics. This one is fun but has…

Figured they probably were not familiar with manual wind watches. Got Super lucky cause it’s works perfectly. After wiping the crusty food residue off the crystal plexiglass she cleaned up pretty good! Love that’s its the USSR version just adds to the unique.

Question 1: Was this band original to the watch?
Question 2: What…
