The Vostok Europe Almaz Automatic sets a Japanese automatic movement and a unidirectional rotating bezel in a 47 mm steel case with a dark blue dial.
An automatic movement
The TMI NH35 automatic movement offers hacking seconds and manual winding. The crown also quick-sets the date.
Dial, lume, and bezel
Swiss Super-LumiNova on the polished metal indexes and the hands of the dark blue dial helps you read the time in low light. The unidirectional rotating bezel lets you time an interval from the moment you set its marker.
Named for the Almaz program
Almaz was a Soviet space station program begun in the 1960s. Hardware from it lives on in Zarya, the first module of the International Space Station.
The details
The Japanese-made TMI NH35 automatic movement has 24 jewels and a 41-hour power reserve when fully wound. It powers the hours, minutes, seconds, and date, with hacking seconds and manual winding.
The 316L stainless steel case measures 47 mm across, 54.8 mm lug to lug, and 15.2 mm thick. A K1 crystal, a hardened mineral crystal with anti-reflective coating, covers the dial. The crown and the solid case back screw down, and water resistance is rated at 200 meters.
The leather strap measures 22 mm at the lugs and fastens with a buckle. The watch ships in a Vostok Europe paper box.
A Soviet space station program from the 1960s. Its hardware survives today in Zarya, the first module of the International Space Station.
A synthetic crystal that combines the shock resistance of hardened mineral glass with scratch resistance close to that of sapphire. On this watch, the crystal has an anti-reflective coating to improve readability.
The case measures 54.8 mm from lug to lug. That span across the top of the wrist matters more for fit than the 47 mm case diameter.
TMI, a movement maker in Japan’s Seiko Group. Vostok Europe, founded in Vilnius, Lithuania, in 2003, has used Japanese movements since 2010 and stopped using Russian ones in 2014. The case is assembled in Lithuania around this automatic caliber.
