I just followed the instructions in this video (winding>time set>date set>time set). But while setting the date my watch stopped.. Anybody has some suggestions for me? The Russian manual isn't really helping, because I don't speak Russian.. ;p
The present hours the east are made only in Russia a city чистополь!!!! In Lithuania NEVER was ЧАСООГО FACTORY!!! The PRESENT HOURS the EAST-KOMANDIRSKY-AMPHIBIAN should be made with an inscription in россии and have the guarantee coupon in Russian!! Be careful of the LITHUANIAN And CHINESE FAKES!!!
I just bought one of these watches and I have no idea how to open the clasp? Is there a secret? Mine has a folding clasp and I can't tell if there's a secret button or something, but once I unfold the clasp I can't figure out how to release the clasp!
I have quite a few Amphibias and Komandirskies, inlcuding all three featured in this review. The Ministry cases are a great option for someone like me with a larger (8") wrist. They wear quite a bit larger. If you're a fan of mesh bracelets, I think they compliment most of the Ministry cases perfectly.
Lots of 18 mm straps around, you just have to search a bit! See the full review of this watch on webWatchWorld and I also have a listing of different strap retailers.
Thanks for the video, it was very helpful. I am mostly into collecting gshocks and casio/seiko dive watches but I think I am about to pull the trigger on a amphibia minister, the one with the black dial/green hands. Cool watches!
Thanks, glad you liked it! I have to get a Minister case myself one of these days. I think they use wider straps also, 22 mm, which gives a better selection for strap changes.
Problem fixxed.. I've 'finger-kicked' the watch on the rear and it started running again.. :)

@romancic09 On mine it is written: "CДEПAHO B POCCИИ". Do you know what it means?
It is an amphibian a blue model with the diver on it like on the very start of this video lower right (only blue slightly lighter blue).

@Victortrotska I think they all say that, I can't remember what that means, something like "made under the orders of the ministry" or something?

@webWatchWorld Thanks for the answer. I found out on a forum, it means: Made In Russia!

I don't have one with a bracelet so not sure, sometimes the clasps are really tight, you can almost break a fingernail trying to open it!
