Nice watches above. Most of my favourite watches are Russian, especially the Vostoks. As reliable, sometimes moreso, as much more expensive stuff I've had, and very affordable. I likethe aesthetic, myself, though some are more subtle than others. Rarely as gaudy as the likes of a modern Rolex.
The one at the top I recently won on eBay and am awaiting delivery from the Ukraine -- it takes a month for it to get here from there. And to get back on topic, the conditions of those times also explains the popularity in many parts of the Midwest of Bonnie & Clyde and John Dillinger who were seen by many -- especially those who lost everything -- as sort of Robin Hood-like figures.
