The White Radio Room Vostok (REAL working prototype)
10
The argument of a forum watch was already discussed some years ago, with very hard discussions and quarrels as result.
Since that attempt, the "forum watch" argument was a taboo for all the members - too many personalities, too many different opinions. The main goal was to ensure a basilar and peaceful discussion place, and i think that the target was hit.
Recently i gathered a small but strong group of Italian enthusiasts about Russian watches. The discussions led to the project of an hypothetic forum watch. Starting from the pic of a Vostok radio-room navy clock (http://www.netgrafik.ch/images/radioroom.jpg ), i have proposed the project of a white radio-room Amphibia.
The "radio-room" Amphibia is well-known for its black dial with red sectors. But the white dial was made only for clocks. Carlo Nicolucci ("Nikarlo") made the definitive prototype in the pics (and the beautiful pics too!), and the definitive watch should be made in 50 or 100 pieces on the basis of a classic Amphibia automatic. We asked the price of the watches with custom dial to the Vostok factory, it should be of approximately 65 Euro for each watch.
Just wanted to know your opinions - the project is still under development, it would be nice to joint the efforts between the two forums.

Wow, can I join the (white) wagon Michele? ;-) :-d
An excellent idea is usually the best way to avoid discussion!
:-!
The hands choice is very good IMO, a good compromise, quite close to the clock hands, but with lume.
PS: I would also prefer other case model with beefier lugs (although not an issue, I want one anyway :-d).

COUNT ME IN :-!
I would like to see it in the older style cases though.
Either way I must have one!!
