Watch Photography: From the Bottom of the Oceans - Neptune Vostok Amphibian

Watch photography in quick photos, no props, no lighting, using a Sony RX100 m2 and high ISO 1600, 3200...

My watch collection has a new addition in the shape of this Vostok Amphibia Neptune, or just Neptune.



This is a proper Vostok factory Neptune as opposed to Meranom's Neptune which may have better detailing especially on the dial but is also twice as expensive.



Counting this Neptune as a variant of the Amphibia, this makes it already the fifth post-Soviet Amphibia in my collection (see the collection listing on the right).


 The bezel is something to like, though it's bi-rotational and doesn't click.


People have been complaining about bracelets on Neptunes, so be warned. Me, I found no major issues with mine, except that it is on the short side, any thicker wrist would require additional links.


Neptune (Latin: Neptūnus [nɛpˈtuːnʊs]) is the god of freshwater, the sea and horses in Roman religion. He is the counterpart of the Greek godPoseidon.


 There is even a serial number on the back like on limited edition watches.




First impressions are entirely positive.


In the dark.


Diverse (not so) divers.



And all over again but in order of unboxing.

The set.
