Vostok 2433 Open Heart

A Vostok 2433 watch - open heart - a 2433 automatic movement.




The open heart is at 12 o'clock.


The back.



The movement.




This must be the cal. 2433 like the one below...

But the bridge is still stamped 2416 B.



With the back removed, you can clearly see the "hole in the heart".




In fact, this watch needs a display caseback... then you could see right through it.


Question of the price: about $60 on Vostok's website [in Russian].

  1. Doesn't look like these are available any more. Link is broken. :-( Do you know if they are possible to find anywhere?

    1. Well, it's not so much that the link is broken as that the watch is no longer there. It was there when I linked to it. And It was there as recently as a couple of months ago. I think it is now sold out.
      Where to find one I honestly don't know, especially as a new item. I bought mine a year and a half ago at some cheap watch selling kiosk here in Moscow and then found it on the Vostok website when I researched it to see if it was genuine.
      Maybe one will pop up on ebay or something.
