Yes, it wears really comfortable too. I’m wearing the strap traditionally (not my single pass preferred method) and it looks/feels great. That handset, though. Maybe I just got a bad one? It would be a $19 home run if the handset was nicer....and white!
For the money those things are great as a beater watch & that lume whatever they're using in those tubes (I keep thinking about all those surplus nuclear subs!🤣) is surprisingly good 👍
Good to know it may have longevity! Yes, the lume lasts all night. Hands fade a little, but still readable. Did you know the metal bracelet you have is now upgraded to stainless steel? Looks to be a bit better quality.
@@WatchWitt yes I did hear that the new ones were stainless steel through the comments on the video that I did, I don't have mine any longer though I put it up as a giveaway prize a while back, as far as I know its working OK I see it on Instagram from time to time...
@@somewhereintimewatchreviews Haha! It’s like a puppy you gave up for adoption, and you’re still in touch with the new owners...they send you pictures every now and then!
Great video! do you think its waterproof? At least for shallow swimming? I'm between this one and a Casio MRW-200H-7. This one for the looks and the casio obviously for the reliability, what do you think? I'm afraid of pruchasing this one only to regret totalling it out of water damage
They rate it at 50m, and I've had it a couple feet deep, but definitely a gamble in my opinion. But at $20 I think it's worth the risk. I wear this watch a lot!
Хороший обзор, думаю за такую цену это неплохие часы. Нашел похожие и думал, стоит заказывать или нет. И было очень неожиданно увидеть часы "Vostok") За это точно лайк👍
Спасибо! Да, он на удивление прочен в сочетании с красивым внешним видом. Мои основные претензии к аппарату разборчивости и отделке. Зато отличные часы-колотушки. Обожаю свой Восток!
Yeah, I put it in my description but didn’t voice it. Sometimes people/brands get funny about a homage at this price point...or any in general for that matter!
I didn't want to share a link since the shipping was even longer than usual, at almost 9 weeks. Maybe I will anyway, at least others can get a quick look at it. Until then, here's the store I bought it from. The price may be a touch higher now, as I bought on sale and had a couple of those good 'ol AliExpress coupons! www.aliexpress.com/item/4000805541432.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.3fd54c4dv7o5nI

I am super impressed for $20 bucks... it's actually really nice!

Finally got one, waited for it to go on sale, $15
Nice! Great tank of a beater!
@@WatchWitt gonna test it on my next trip to Thailand...
I give it 100 stars❤❤❤❤❤❤
I hear the newer version is even better.
For the price.. Very nice.. Also have the orange one. One the crown was not glued.. Ad do do it of course.
I think they have this black version with white handset now, as it SHOULD be! Definitely a solid beater!
Great review man! Thank you
Thanks, Johnny! Surprisingly little beater!

@@WatchWitt yes I know the guy that won it & he doesn't live that far from me either. A couple of towns over, he seemed happy with his prize! 😁

Hi, the diameter declared - 44 mm - is with or without the crown? Thanks
Without the crown. Thanks for watching!
Yea they are homageing the Luminox
I was just going to say... the look, and even the logo reminds me of a Luminox.
Yeah, I put it in my description but didn’t voice it. Sometimes people/brands get funny about a homage at this price point...or any in general for that matter!
@@WatchWitt yea Like in Gary's I Like Watches case.
Are those tritium tubes on the dial ?
No, unlike the original these are just lume plots. But you can see in the video that the luminescence is pretty strong!
The new version looks better with better caseback.
They definitely updated it a little!
No Link?
