Product Description
The Kashalot, for which this watch is named, was a single-hull submarine that entered service toward the end of the Soviet era in 1988. Absent of lugs, this watch is built from a single hull as well—and it’s not too shabby in the water, either Read More

Looks like Goodyear and a "Russian" watch company collaborated on this lame design... Looks like a tire to me...😂

You'd expect the dial to say "водостойкие" (plural form) because the word "watch" in Russian ("часы") only has plural forms. Otherwise, what is the word referring to? The dial? The mechanism? It doesn't make sense. Then, the word "automatic" is in English, and not in Russian. Why?
To me, a Russian, this looks like a knockoff even though it's not. Smells like google translate. Why go through the effort of making these watches without even consulting with a native speaker of Russian? This, together with the fact that the brand name will make people think I'm a communist (very unpopular thing in Russia these days), makes these watches a no-no.
I don't want to be annoyed each and every time I look at my own wrist. I don't want to be embarassed every time someone else looks at my wrist. If I were an edgy fedora-wearing 30-year-old teenager, I'd definitely buy this though. 😉👌

After today's news:
"Russian intelligence officers offered cash rewards to Taliban fighters to kill US, UK troops in Afghanistan."
I'm not the least bit interested in anything even remotely associated with Russia. Not that I ever was to begin with...

I agree--that's a big difference between generic Fliegers and this watch--especially now.

RayFYous guyz really meted it out in a massive, well-versed, slug-fest! I started out early in this thread and still 'belieb' that this should not be allowed. Labeling stuff with brutal regime logos is not okay.

It was intentional. I'm simply trying to point out that he's putting a lot into a name. This watch was not made by the communist party any more than the Porsche Design was made by Ferdinand Porsche who was card holding member of the Nazi Party.

Nothing made in Germany today is intended (or allowed) to romanticize/glorify their past Nazi history.
That's not quite the case with merchandised specifically tied to the Soviet era.
I won't debate who was worse, but I would go out of my way to avoid indirectly associating myself with either period.
None of that means I wouldn't buy a Porsche, wear a Sinn, eat caviar or drink vodka.

Not liking the “stauer” lugs :( once the strap fails you have to cut your own it seems.
