    i have been wearing my "new to me" Vostok with world time bezel.. the time keeping on the wrist is excellent.. give it some rest to check its power reserve..
    this one really got some complements from my friends and they love how it look on the wrist...

    a quick question please..: is the Vostock crown made from stamped stainless steel or plated brass? thank for the info guys..

    Really does look the bees knees iyonk

    As that crown has shallow grooves would say pressed.
    If you look at it when undone prob. will see that it is pressed onto a smaller crown. Deffo st.st. though.
    Some newer, and SE's too, but not all, are machined from solid, cleaner crisp straight knurling grooves are a give-away.
