The cushion-style case with pronounced crown guards, chunky bi-directional bezel and deep navy fumé dial create a compact but purposeful diver aesthetic. At 40 mm excluding the guards and 44 mm lug to lug, it wears with confident presence yet remains comfortable for daily use. The chrome-plated brass mid-case shows only light, honest wear, while the stainless-steel screw back is crisply engraved “ВОДОНЕПРОНИЦАЕМЫЕ” to underline its water-resistant tool-watch intent. Paired with a navy suede strap that echoes the dial tone, this Komandirskie feels like a field watch and a diver blended into one rugged, characterful mechanical timepiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVostok Komandirskie - Fumé blue military dial\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dial is a rich blue sunburst that darkens to almost black at the edge, giving a dramatic fumé effect under light. Large white Arabic numerals with warm patinated lume dots offer instant legibility, framed by a fine minute track. The red five-pointed star above six o’clock and the Cyrillic “Командирские” script emphasise the military origin, while “17 КАМНЕЙ” and “СДЕЛАНО В СССР” at the base firmly place the watch in the late-Soviet era. A framed date window at three o’clock adds day-to-day practicality without disrupting the balanced layout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKomandirskie - Hands\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStraight pencil hour and minute hands with central lume infill mirror the functional look of the numerals, showing the same even creamy ageing as the dial plots. A slim red seconds hand with circular counterweight sweeps over the dial, adding a subtle pop of colour and reinforcing the instrument-like feel of this Soviet mechanical watch. Together they deliver excellent contrast against the fumé background, allowing quick reading of the time in low light as well as daylight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKomandirskie - Crown\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe oversized, deeply fluted crown sits securely between robust guards at three o’clock. It is designed to screw down against the case, improving water resistance and ensuring a positive, tactile feel when winding the movement. The machining remains crisp, making daily winding easy and giving the watch its unmistakable tool-diver character. This crown architecture is a signature feature of Vostok’s utilitarian design philosophy, built to endure real-world use rather than just desk duty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVostok Komandirskie - Suede strap\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFitted is a dark navy suede strap with contrasting light stitching that visually ties into the fumé dial while softening the overall presence on the wrist. Although not a period-correct Soviet strap, it is a high-quality modern replacement that suits the watch’s proportions, wears comfortably, and highlights the casual military-inspired aesthetic. The 18 mm lug width also allows easy swapping to NATO, leather or rubber straps if you want to adapt the Komandirskie to different occasions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eVostok Komandirskie 1988 — Case, bezel and on-the-wrist feel\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeyond its historic charm, this Komandirskie is a very wearable diving-style tool watch. The 40 mm case diameter (around 42 mm including the crown guards) and 44 mm lug-to-lug give it substantial wrist presence without feeling bulky, especially thanks to the modest 18 mm strap size. The chrome-plated brass case carries light marks consistent with careful use, while the stainless-steel screw-down back and the crisply machined bezel teeth reflect the model’s utilitarian design. Rotating the bezel provides firm feedback, and the luminous triangle at twelve allows intuitive timing of dives or everyday tasks. On the wrist it wears slightly smaller than the raw measurements suggest, with the curved lugs hugging the arm and the supple suede strap helping the watch sit low and securely, ideal for all-day wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVostok\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKomandirskie\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCondition\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVintage, excellent\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGender\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMen’s\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCaliber\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2414\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCategory\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiving Vintage Watch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduction Year\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1988 year\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDial Color\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlue fumé\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCase Diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40.0 mm (excluding crown guards)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLug to Lug\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e44.0 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLug Width\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18.0 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCase Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChrome-plated brass case, stainless-steel screw back\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMovement Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eManual Wind\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFully Serviced\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFully Operational\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOriginal Watch Components\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12 Months\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eManual wind Calibre 2414 movement\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside ticks the hand-wound Vostok calibre 2414, a 17-jewel mechanical movement beating at approximately 19,800 vibrations per hour (around 3 Hz) with a power reserve of roughly 36 hours. This robust workhorse was engineered to prioritise reliability and ease of service over decorative finishing, making it perfectly suited to military and professional use. The crown winds smoothly, and time-setting is precise, with the simple date display at three o’clock advancing reliably. This example has been fully serviced by a professional watchmaker, ensuring clean lubrication, stable amplitude and healthy timekeeping performance, so you can enjoy the ritual of daily winding with confidence. The calibre represents a distinct strand of Soviet horology, offering character and charm very different from contemporary Swiss or Western movements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHeritage of the Vostok Komandirskie in late Cold War design\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Komandirskie line was created by Vostok as an affordable yet robust wristwatch for officers and members of the Soviet armed forces, and by the late 1980s it had become an icon of Cold War design. The combination of bold numerals, red star emblem and Cyrillic inscriptions gives this piece an unmistakable identity, instantly evoking its military roots. Collectors value these watches as authentic artefacts of everyday Soviet life rather than polished luxury objects, and the present configuration with blue fumé dial and gear-style bezel is particularly striking. For enthusiasts exploring Eastern Bloc watchmaking, a well-preserved Komandirskie represents a gateway into an alternative tradition of functional, state-driven precision timekeeping and remains a compelling addition to a serious vintage collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition, originality, 12-month warranty \u0026amp; shipping worldwide\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Vostok Komandirskie remains in excellent overall condition for its age, with a clean dial, attractive lume ageing and only light wear to the chrome-plated case, indicating careful use rather than hard abuse. The dial, hands, bezel insert and crown are consistent with known original configurations for this model family, while the navy suede strap is a sympathetic modern addition that can easily be swapped if desired. The watch is fully serviced, fully operational and offered with a 12-month mechanical warranty and worldwide shipping for added peace of mind.

The white dial is clean and highly legible, with gold-tone baton markers, matching hands and a practical date display at 3 o’clock.

It is signed “TISSOT” beneath 12 o’clock, with “PRX” printed above 6 o’clock and “SWISS MADE” at the lower edge. Applied gold-tone baton hour markers add warmth and contrast, while the outer minute track keeps the watch precise and readable. The framed date window at 3 o’clock is neatly integrated into the dial and adds practical daily function.

Their slim baton form gives the dial a clean, refined character without disturbing readability. The central seconds hand reinforces the quartz analog nature of the watch and gives it practical daily functionality. The hands are well proportioned for the 27 mm case, keeping the dial balanced and elegant. Their warm tone works especially well against the white dial and two-tone case architecture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTissot PRX 1988 - Two-Tone Stainless Steel and Gold Plated Case\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe case is one of the defining features of this Tissot PRX. It combines stainless steel with a gold-plated faceted bezel, creating the two-tone aesthetic strongly associated with late 1980s Swiss watch design. The cushion-style case flows naturally into the integrated bracelet, giving the watch a unified and architectural appearance. Brushed steel surfaces contrast with the warmer polished gold-tone bezel, while the compact 27 mm diameter and 31 mm lug-to-lug measurement make the watch elegant and wearable. The case shows normal light signs of previous use, but the overall presentation is clean, refined and immediately recognizable as a PRX.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCrown\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe crown is original and unsigned, positioned at 3 o’clock. Its gold-tone finish matches the bezel and dial furniture, while the fluted edge provides practical grip for setting the time and date. Because the crown is not signed, it is described accurately and conservatively, but its originality remains an important detail for the watch’s integrity. It sits discreetly within the side of the case and supports the clean integrated design without interrupting the PRX profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTissot PRX Original Integrated Bracelet\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe watch is fitted with its original integrated Tissot bracelet, an important feature for both design and collector value.

A small gold-tone accent link near the clasp complements the bezel and dial markers. The clasp is signed “TISSOT”, and the bracelet fits wrists up to approximately 19 cm and smaller. This original bracelet is central to the watch’s identity and completes the integrated 1980s design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSwiss Quartz Analog ETA 956.112 Caliber\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside this Tissot PRX is the ETA 956.112 quartz analog movement, listed in the product data as the caliber powering the watch. The movement is not visible in the supplied images, so the caliber information is taken from the product record rather than direct visual inspection. ETA quartz calibers from this period are known for practical accuracy, slim construction and dependable everyday performance. This makes the watch especially convenient while preserving the analog appearance and refined Swiss watchmaking identity.
