Vostok Europe Jurgis Kairys Chronograph 6S21-5955341 #024/300

After getting both my H3 Tactical 24 hour watch and the Sturmanskie / Poljot Aviator I really wanted to get myself a chronograph. A 24 hour one would've been perfect but super low availability + cost were just not going to make that happen (Looking at you Breitling.... )

I did a lot of digging and found some really interesting ones - I'm however a sucker for a limited run (even if artificially so lol), so when I found the Jurgis Kairys Chronograph by Vostok Europe I was sold. Basically it's a limited edition based on the Vostok Europe 'Explorer' Model with some embelishments such as a Jurgis' signature and aircraft watch back.


It came in a nice hard case box and with 3 straps (Brown Leather, Rubber and Black Nato).
I wore the brown leather strap for some time before switching over to the Nato strap. It took some getting used to, but now I'm a big fan of Nato straps. The one that came with the watch is at least 12" / 300mm long, and fits just right, and makes me wonder how people wear those 270mm ones..

Meanwhile I recently found out they've made an updated version of this watch with a Blue/Yellow color scheme which looks very good as well
