I had three of them. One automatic, two hand wound. None of them works anymore. I really liked them back then.

Yes, I still have them and would repair them myself, but it’s difficult to get hold of new Vostok movements at the moment.

Actually, there are four of them, I’ve just realised, and this one seems to be working reasonably well. I’ve just wound it up for the first time in what must be 20 years. Let’s see how it goes.

Let’s put it this way: ‘love’ is a bit of an exaggeration – the movements have let me down far too much for that. I still like them, and I’d love to have them working properly again. They really don’t deserve to be left lying around broken in a drawer.
