‘Steve Zissue’ Amphibia

TZ-UK Forums TZ-UK Forums Velorum

Some of my favourite things:

1960/70s Nostalgia TV: The Undersea World of Jacques Cousteau
Film director: Wes Anderson
Actor: Bill Murray
Artists/Musician: David Bowie
Watch: Vostok

All come together in one of my favourite films – The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou

Back in 2017 I had a Vostok 420526 Amphibia as worn by Bill Murray throughout the film that I bought to complete my Zissou outfit for a fancy dress party. I then sold it on SC.

Recently Ed (ed335d) was kind enough to sell me his mint 2022 one complete with Vostok rubber strap and Zissou case back.

I am very happy to have one of these again and it’s the one Amphibia that I have no intention of modding. I haven’t even put it on a Eulit Panama which is a first. The rubber strap is actually rather good.

A number of other models of Amphibia can seen on various actors in the film along with the Rolex worn by Ned Plimton (Owen Wilson) so even if your not keen on the quirky and dead pan nature of the film then at least you can play ‘spot the watch!’
