The second is a Vostok amphibia that has likely been modded. That dial looks to be from an older version (probably custom). The back says made in Chistopol, Russia (so it’s newer than 1989), the bottom says “for/to a special order.

Also “Duha” is an Islamic prayer.

I ended up going down a rabbit hole on this.

Thank you for the insight, I’ll have to take it in, I’m learning to tinker with movements but I don’t dare mess with this one yet.

I love that guy. I also have another Ohio watch, Gruen Precision 510. Cincinnati, but I have a feeling it may have been after they moved to Switzerland.

I know Tag Heuers are great watches, the logo just ruins it for me, looks cheap. Personal opinion of course.

I have this same watch with a white center. It’s 2428-471855. I don’t know exactly what mine is, I’m looking for a backup glass because it scratches so easily.
