I've got a bit of a hankering for a Vostok Zissou but they're currently out of stock at Meranom. I've signed up for a stock alert, but while I wait, does anyone know how long they usually take to restock lines like these?

Or for that matter, any other recommended sellers?
Don't know about a Zissou, but for all thigns Russian, you can't go wrong with https://www.poljot24.de/
No affiliation, just great experiences since I first got a Vostok and a Poljot in 2001.
Ta - lots of tempting stuff on there, I see, although not what I was looking for, sadly.
There was also a Russian eBay seller - zenitar - that everyone used to recommend, who appears to have disappeared off the face of the earth.
If you can't wait and want security.
If you fancy a risk.
How much?

Black dial one is nearer the film version I think - and needs to be on a rubber strap
Thats a shame, he was OK - I bought quite a few items from him.Originally Posted by yorkio
I'm too much of a tightwad to pay £125 for one, particularly if it needs a strap too!
I think I'm just going to have to dig in and wait for some more to roll out of the factory. It looks like most of the Russki dealers are out of stock too, so I guess they're just a bit back-ordered on that particular model.
Damn you- there's an Alexander Shorokhoff that I have fallen for...
I'm going to try going direct, I'm searching for either a 2426.02 movement or a 960762 donor watch for a project.
Good luck with that, stock was wiped out when Meranom started selling the LD components.
The Luna Dude is the project. I have the bezel, dial & hands plus a 150 case. I didn't bother with the strap as I have a black leather one in mind. I was on the list but didn't like the idea of the new proposal - it was more expensive & not a Vostok which was kind of the original point. I can wait for a movement or donor but I don't do patience terribly well so any new avenues are welcome.
The Luna dude looks great.
The Luna Dude really does look great, doesn't it? I wish I'd paid a bit more attention. I take it Meranom were just clearing out the bits they'd got in for the project before it collapsed? So there's no chance of any of anything else popping up in the store?
There's quite a good chance. If they made all 987 pieces, they certainly won't have sold them all.
You can subscribe for email notifications for if/when they come back into stock.
But you'll not find the right movement anywhere.
Ah, yes, in all the excitement about spotting the dial and the hands, I'd forgotten about the movement! Oh well.
