Vostok Amphibia 420526: the nautical charm of the ‘Zissou’ dial

Dealers often call the Amphibia 420526 the ‘Steve Zissou’, but the watch is interesting without relying on a nickname. Its black dial combines large white numerals, a ship’s wheel and an anchor, giving the compact round case an openly nautical character. A red seconds hand and date at three add small practical accents rather than distracting from the illustrations.

The Vostok shop specifies a 39 mm steel case, 15 mm thickness, acrylic crystal and 200-metre water resistance. The automatic 2416 movement carries 31 jewels; the standard bracelet uses 18 mm fittings according to dealer documentation. The profile concerns the standard factory reference, not the separately advertised S1 modification with a named Zissou bezel and caseback. This is a classic catalogue design, not a new release.
