Vostoks are cool I've technically had two. One was replaced under warranty. I took it swimming and in waist deep water with the crown tight it took on water. So if I'm ever going to take a watch of any noticable price in the water again I'll get it pressure tested first. Vostoks was cool about it though replaced it free and I think the warranty was already expired. I haven't tried working on anything more complex than Timex yet though. The Timex watches are very simple and intended to be serviceable by the average person Timex even gave instructions to the public on how to do a service on them.
