Anybody heard of these watches. I notice they aren't expensive but I like the idea of the 24 hour dial just for something different. I know their are some good russian watches out there but as something different for very little money whats your thoughts.

Yep, sometimes it can get confusing, Wostok is Vostok for example.
I have a cheap Soviet Slava, timekeeping isn't exactly split second accurate, but very cheap to buy, and they have a little more of the interest factor than whatever else you could get for £20.
