My Vostok amphibia broke
My vostok amphibia which was a gift by my parents for my birthday.
A relative who lives in china helped my parents to buy it when he went to Russia
I haven’t worn it in awhile and I wanted to wear it this morning, when I shaker it for the rotor to spin , the watch didn’t work
I spun it again and it still didn’t work
I opened the case and the rotor was fine but the spring didn’t spin
I don’t know what to do now, I love that watch dearly

YouTube is your friend, perhaps someone has a tutorial on how to fix it. If not take it to a watch repair place
Sorry to hear about your Amphib man 😕
I have a couple of vintage (90's era) Boctoks and both of 'em still run, albeit not fabulously at times! LOL! They've never been serviced to my knowledge (I've owned 'em since very early '00's) and am reluctant to do so 'cause am sure that any service by a watchmaker would cost MORE than either of the watches is worth. Likely cheaper to just replace with new Vostoks.
Good luck with it dude 😀
See if one of these will help

If not, then figure out what movement it is, and get a transplant donor from eBay. Its way easier to replace a movement than you would imagine. Its "easy" even. Just requires patience. Good luck.
