Vostok Europe, the watch brand signifies much more than just watches telling the time – these are timepieces built and designed to represent the adventurous spirit. The Vostok-Europe brand emerged in the 1960s when the Russian Defence Ministry’s official watch supplier began manufacturing iconic wrist watches like the “Komandirskie” and the Amphibia – a dive watch that had 200m water resistance capabilities. Incidentally, the brand name “Vostok-Europe” was inspired by the Russian Space program.
