Vostok komansirskie submarine

Bought this on eBay a while ago and it was cool to look at but it runs way too fast and I don't have the means to service it so I'm selling back on eBay. Other than that it's a great watch for collecting.

How fast is too fast?

It may need demagnetized. A basic demagnetizer is pretty inexpensive and it's not a bad device for a watch guy to have.

I believe vostoks are very easy to regulate. I'm sure someone on here could offer advice if you did want to keep it? An interesting watch.

Yeah i thought it might be that so I'll probably buy a demagnetizer soon. Thanks for the advice!

Thanks, and yeah I'm sure they're not the most complicated watch to fix but i was gonna get rid of it anyways.

Is that one of those magnetic watch bands? That may have been the root of your problem. I'm not sure how strong the magnet is, having never handled one, but it's a possibility.

Fair enough. I'm sure some one will snap it up. The submarine ones are pretty popular!

Yes it's a magnetic one so that could be the problem
