At that time, the country's first men's wristwatch called "Kirovskie" was developed and released. They were distinguished by incomparable reliability, durability, durability and perfect precision. The wrist watch "Victory" went down in history... They were produced in the 50s.
In 1965, Vostok began to officially supply high-quality devices to the USSR Ministry of Defense. At the same time, the plant produced another well-known waterproof model - "Komandirskie"... They have become terribly popular and recognizable.

How to distinguish an original from a fake?
Today on the market for women's accessories there is a huge number of fakes of different quality. Some copies are so explicit that you can immediately identify them. But there are also such well-thought-out fakes that only a professional can "reveal". Let's consider a few nuances that will allow you to distinguish an original watch from a fake one:
- There should be no mistakes in any inscriptions on the watch;
- The coating on stainless steel should not peel and be easily scratched. Such problems occur only with low-grade surfaces, which are not available in Vostok;
- If the purchased watch is out of order quickly, this should alert you. Original models from the Russian company do not require repair for decades;
- These accessories will not leave any marks on your wrist, as they are made of safe and hypoallergenic materials. If you find that your product has begun to actively shed (especially after rain), then this is an ordinary fake;
- Do not order watches from third-party and one-page sites. As a rule, such portals sell substandard fakes, which are even outwardly far from the originals;
- This also applies to stores on social networks. To stumble upon a fake in such places is as easy as shelling pears.
It is recommended to purchase such accessories in specialized stores or on the official website of the Russian brand.
Features of use
Branded watches do not require special care. If you treat them carefully and carefully, then they will serve you for a very long time and will not lose their presentation.
So, the features of using the Vostok watch are as follows:
- Take into account the level of water resistance of the products. You can find out about it if you look at the inside of the case;
- Protect your watch from sudden temperature changes. Such conditions can harm even the most expensive models. The Vostok watch case may deform, which will lead to depressurization of the glass;
- Wear your watch so that its bracelet and dial are not exposed to mechanical damage (shock). This can lead to unpleasant consequences in the form of cracked glass or a dented case;
- Watch out for straps / bracelets. They should not be too tight or too loose;
- Original accessories from the Russian brand can be cleaned. To do this, you need to find out the level of water resistance of your model. If it is not lower than 50 m, then they can be cleaned with a brush and soap solution;
- Do not forget about Vostok watch service. It is recommended to send them for health checks from time to time to avoid costly and time-consuming repairs in the future.
Reviews
Modern women of fashion are trying to complement their images only with high-quality and durable accessories that have a spectacular design. All these requirements are met by Russian watches from the Vostok factory.
Young ladies celebrate the wonderful color combinations of domestic accessories. Everything is thought out in them. The bezel perfectly matches the dial and the numbers on it, and the dial itself looks harmoniously against the background of the strap and the steel bezel. Perfect combinations look very pretty on a lady's wrist.
Customers could not fail to note the service life of quality watches. They work without problems for decades and do not have to be constantly taken for repairs. Of course, you should treat them carefully and carefully so as not to expose them to unnecessary risk.
Branded watches have high quality coatings on steel that do not fade or fade. They are not afraid of water and dampness, like most cheap accessories with low-quality sprays. The owners of these products have been exposed to rain many times and even went to the beach in hours, but they have not lost their color and presentation.
