You can make it look like it usually does. There is a lot of work that will go into making it work right, however, because the bezel and detent will need to be carefully redesigned, and there may not be space for the detent anyway due to how thin the stock Vostok bezel is.

So the short answer is: nobody's gotten to the prototype, afik. You're welcome to try.

Manual winding issues with the 2824 and based upon movements like the H10/Powermatic 80 are actually not that uncommon. Mostly stems from the idea that if it's a automatic movement there's no need to manually wind it all the time, so unlike earlier handwound movements the winding wheel and sliding pinion (IIRC) are not as robust and tend to give and break occasionally.

The 2801, 2804 ETA cals don't suffer from that issue so the earlier Khaki mechanical are fine.

^ thats actually the thinnest replica available right now, its 7.1mm

They feel very different on the wrist. This Steinhart is much thinner and feels more svelte than the bb58. Also I find the bb58 bracelet clasp is huge as the end link to the clasp doesn’t flex the whole way. I much prefer it with this strap.

I personally don't like the gold face around the digital screen. There are better-looking gold Casios like the A159W-whatever, I think.

Keep in mind these are just painted gold and scratch easily. They're cheap, so it's not a big deal.
