Too good of a deal to pass up - also my first foray into some Russian divers. For those of you that are familiar with them are they good pieces?

Those are good pick-ups! Classic designs, and look to be in great shape.
If you decide to pass along the white-dial Scuba Dude (third pic), hit me up.

No idea!
I'll report back when it comes in, but I hope so.

Re: Incoming! What have you got in the mail?
I've been tracking this watch over the summer, and it sat steady around $70-75 (MSRP $110). In the last couple of weeks I think stock is dropping and the prices are up (for example $86 on Amazon). So I pulled the trigger on one at $79 including shipping and tax. I have too many watches, but G-Shocks don't count.

and had to get his brother. I had a ~ $50 credit on my amazon account, so around $15 to my door. This is about the best price I've seen on this model.
It's a poor image of the watch, and should be better looking in person.
Here's a better real world shot (courtesy of WUS):
Crazy to think how much I've sweated over the months on buying 2 watches that just cost me less than $100

Finally got my hands on a mini turtle at the right price, even accounting for the mismatched chapter ring and dial.
