Vostok Amfibia NEPTUN Automatic 40mm Watch Model: 960761.1

Unlike most dive watches on the market, Vostok AMFIBIA is Russian through and through!

Dating back to 1967, Amfibia was the first Soviet diving watch designed exclusively for its Navy.  Over 50 years later,  this unique timepiece employs the same technology, which relies on outside pressure to tightly seal its case.  As the watch gets submerged, the surrounding water pressure increases, which in turn seals and pressurises the case. The ingenuity of this design factored in distortion caused by increasing water pressure into the tolerance of the watch.

Our Notes

Vostok AMFIBIA is one of the most widely collected dive watches.  Often described as ‘quirky’, these offbeat dive watches are infused with history and personality.

Serving as a testament to its innovative engineering, Neptun model is tough and functional. Not as quirky as its Scuba Dude predecessors, this model spots a unique 'Neptun' design and despite its aesthetic refinements is more than capable of being submerged below 200m or being flown into outer space. 

Equally at home at the depth of the ocean floor or chairing a boardroom meeting, this Amfibia Neptun would make a great addition to any discerning watch enthusiast or  collector.  

About Vostok Watches

Founded in 1941, at the height of WWII, Vostok Watch Makers Inc. remains the official supplier to the Russian Ministry of Defence .

A brand with a rich history and well deserved reputation for durability and reliability in the toughest conditions, Vostok are best known for their rugged military and diver mechanical watches.

‘Komandierskie’ which translates as a Commander’s watch were launched in 1965. Sold exclusively to army officers, these watches were in high regard for their reliability and practicality in the field.

In 1967, Vostok designed their first ‘Amfibia’ divers' watch that was manufactured exclusively for Soviet Navy.

By the 1970’s, Vostok watches were being exported to 54 different countries across the Globe.

In 1975, a Soviet cosmonaut Georgy Grechko wore the Amphibia watch during the Soyuz 17 mission to the Salyut 4 space station, which skyrocketed brand’s popularity around the globe.

In 2004, Vostok were commissioned to design a customised version of Amfibia watch for Bill Murray to wear in ‘The Life Aquatic’ movie where he portrayed the character of an eccentric oceanographer, Steve Zissou.

Today, Vostok is one of the very few brands with an in-house manufacturing. Remaining true to their founding principles, Vostok continues to impress with their durability, practicality and style that pays homage to its rich history.  Many of their models have become cult classics among watch collectors from all around the world.
