The Vostok Komandirskie is not the most well-equipped watch, with it's chrome plated brass case and domed acrylic crystal that scratches easily, but it was meant as a watch that was cheap to make, durable and easy to repair, if necessary, and that's exactly what it is.
This model in particular, the 211307 Komandriskie 'Paratrooper' has a smooth unidirectional bezel, a very charming and interesting dial design with a paratrooper deploying. They're also extremely affordable when sourced from the right seller, though they tend to be less affordable on Amazon for some reason.
