My first chronograph
It has finally arrived and i couldnt be happier. The wach has captivated me since the first time i saw it on YouTube but it blew me away in person. After taking it out of the box i spent a good 10 minutes just staring at the dial and then another 20 minutes looking at the mechanism. I know that regular people dont care about watches but im gonna be very annoyin and show this one off to everyone. Seeing the mechanism should be interesting to most people and would grab there attention.

Congrats, man. I know exactly how you feel. One of my early watches i have gave me that impression too. I still love my first Vostok with it’s captivating acrylic bezel insert and that bracelet. I know what you mean about being annoying and showing everyone the new trinket. I’m super guilty of that haha.
I definitely plan to own a mechanical chronograph and the 1963 & its variants have been very tempting. I’m trying to be good and save up for one of my “grails” instead, a Fortis O.C.C..

Good luck!!!
Its a pain in the ass saving up and controling your self but in the end the years you spend enjoying it are worth it.
Great choice. I've been on the fence with this watch for awhile now. I'm going to finally pull the trigger here in the next month or so. Just need to make sure I have the funds I spent too much on Christmas a d also fixing my car this last couple of months.

I know what you mean, took me longer then i though it would to be able to buy it but thats life.
I believe the next big Aliexpress sale is in February so that might be a good time/oportunity to buy the watch.
