The Russian Manufacture Petrodvorets from
Saint Petersburg
can only be found in Paris at
Fréret-Roy!
In 1961 the brand "Raketa" ("rocket" in Russian) was launched in honour of the first manned flight into space by the cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin.
Raketa watches are manufactured in the Petrodvorets factory in Peterhof, a stone's throw from the summer palace of Tsar Peter the Great.
The historic manufactore has been completely renovated in recent years and the new collections of Raketa watches are now available in France.
The Factory is one of the few factories in the world to produce its own mechanisms from A to Z. The plans for the "Raketa-Avtomat" 2624 automatic caliber were sleeping in the old Petrodvorets factory, abandoned ... The caliber, which has been rediscovered and brought up to date and improved, was launched in 2014 and is manufactured entirely in the Petrodvorets factory, together with the escapement and spring, making the Raketa brand a true watch Manufacture.
The brand is the partner of celebrities such as the film director Emir Kusturica for the Avant-Garde model, the cosmonauts Alexander Ivanchenkov for the Copernicus and Sergueï Krikalev for the Baïkonur...

Collection overview...
Raketa "Avtomat" calibers
Raketa watches are created around
Russian mechanical movements
produced in our Peterhof manufacture!
The components of Raketa movements are not produced by computer numerical machines (CNCs). They are produced by hand using traditional "Russian-style" methods by men and women who put a little bit of their soul into every component they produce. You can visit the Raketa Watch Factory and see with your own eyes how they work.
A few figures to give you an idea of how the Raketa Classic "Big Zero" is made:
8,201 operations are required to produce this watch.
103 specialists are needed to produce all the components of this watch.
242 components are on your wrist when you wear this watch model.
The
Avtomat 2615 caliber equips all Raketa watches with 12-hour display, in different finishes depending on the model:
Big Zero, Copernicus, Amphibia, Avant-Garde.
This caliber is also available in a modified
Avtomat 2615R
version,
which turns backwards and equips the "Russian Code" models.
The
Avtomat 2624
caliber equips all watches with 24-hour display, one of Raketa's specialties.
The characteristics of these different calibers are presented below.

For polar expeditions!
Following its long tradition of making watches for polar explorers, Raketa has developed a model for people who want to discover the boundless polar territories by land or by sea.
The 24-hour dial is essential to distinguish day from night during the long polar nights and days that last up to 6 months each. During polar maritime expeditions, crewmembers can keep count of their shifts with the six lines dividing the perimeter of the dial into 6 quarters (4 hours each). The entire surface of the dial and hands is covered with Superluminova, ensuring a perfect legibility during total polar darkness.
The rotating bezel is engraved and enameled with the names of all the Arctic ocean seas set out according to their respective time zones, allowing to use the GMT function. The rotating bezel can be also used as a solar compass both in the northern and southern hemispheres.
The back of the watch reveals the beautifully decorated 24 hour automatic movement which is entirely produced by the Raketa Watch Factory in Saint-Petersburg. The finishing of the rotor is reminiscent of northern lights.
Each Raketa Polar watch has a certificate confirming that the watch can be used in the harshest natural conditions of polar regions. The certificate is delivered by an official Russian laboratory within the frame of the “Arctic voluntary certification system”.

"Raketa Big Zero"
๏ปฟ
New cushion-shaped case 40 mm in diameter and 14.05 mm thick, round bezel, sapphire crystal, crown with underlying ruby, transparent back.
Presented with a white dial with multi-layer lacquered black numerals in 2022, the new Big Zero with a black dial has just been launched at the end of 2023!
This time, the numerals and hour-markers are again in multi-layer lacquer, but very luminescent!
The original design of this watch dates back to the 1970s, an elegant mechanical watch that has become a Raketa icon. During an official visit to Italy, journalists asked Mikhaïl Gorbachev what Perestroïka meant for the URSS. Gorbachev replied that Russia has embarked on an entirely new start, from zero, and using his hands to emphasise his point, he showed the figure “0” marked in place of “12” on his Raketa watch. From that date, the hour figures on Raketa watches always start with "0", one of Raketa’s signature.
The new case with short horns design was developed to highlight the lacquered white dial with multi-layer black figures. This compact case preserves the roundness of its original Soviet-era design, even if its architecture is now articulated around a “cushion shape” design: a volume that offers a lot of surface where brushed sides contrast with polished ones.
Last but not least, a ruby shines behind the logo of the Raketa factory, which is cut into the crown, reminding us of the lapidary origins of the factory founded in Peterhof, a stone's throw from the palace of Peter the Great, 300 years ago.

Raketa's most emblematic model - the Big Zero - returns with new colors: white numerals on a black dial!
The strong Superluminova coating on the oversized hands and numerals highlights the original, bold aesthetics of this minimalist design, while ensuring perfect night-time legibility.
The Big Zero is one of the few Soviet-era watch designs to have crossed borders and time.
By conventional standards, this is not a classic design. However, it has become a Raketa classic thanks to its unique, timeless quality!
The caseback reveals a Raketa automatic movement, entirely created by the Raketa watchmaking factory in St. Petersburg.

0295
In the new cushion-shaped Big Zero case,
The Big LOVE model is distinguished by its four letters, which replace the 12, 3, 6 and 9.
The watch is delivered with four straps of the different colors shown below
Everything starts with love!
(Especially on these troubled times!)
To mark the International Women’s Day on 8th March, Raketa releases a watch for ladies dedicated to the most beautiful feeling: Love.
Raketa “Big Love” offers a new interpretation of femininity. A watch as a mood, as a feeling, as love. This model symbolizes the essence of Raketa’s “Big Zero” model: everything starts from 0. The hands of Raketa “Big Love” turn in a circle designating the word “LOVE” and each time the hour hand passes by the big “0” (or in this case the big letter “O”) everything restarts with LOVE!
The dial of Raketa “Big Love” embodies a minimalist design which is nevertheless full of feelings: a black and white dial with big letters L, O, V, E, crowned with the letter “O” (or with a zero - as you prefer). With its classic black and white dial design and its four different color leather straps, Raketa “Big Love” will match any style and mood. The white, bright reddish-orange as well as pastel shades of pink and blue straps will emphasize your personality in both casual and classic styles. The quick-change strap system allows you to easily change the straps depending on your current outfit or mood.

"Russian Code 0302"
Avtomat Caliber 2615 R
Change direction with this watch
which turns anti-clockwise clockwise!
Live in the beat of the Universe!
The “Russian Code”, one of Raketa’s most recognizable models with a counterclockwise movement, is finally launched as part of Raketa’s main collection.
The watch is crafted in an all-new case: a combination of sharp facets and rounded curves are enhanced by a mix of satin-brushed finishing with polished edges, while the sapphire glass has a more complex domed shape. A synthetic ruby is yet another update of the case: it โโglows behind Raketa factory’s logo carved on the side of the crown.
The centre of the dial displays the constellations over St. Petersburg on the morning of April 12, 1961, when Yuri Gagarin made history by becoming the first man to fly into space. Textured polished indexes with two types of coatings (light rhodium on even and dark on odd numerals) convey an extra 3-dimensional aspect to the already multilayered dial.
Behind the elegant design lies the revolutionary concept that time should move in harmony with the natural counterclockwise movement of the planets in our Solar System. Therefore, just like the planets around the Sun, the hands of the Raketa “Russian Code” rotate in a counterclockwise direction around the dial.
The case back reveals a beautifully decorated automatic movement entirely manufactured and assembled at the Raketa Watch Factory in Saint-Petersburg.
Are you ready to move on to the new generation of watches that tick to the beat of the Universe?
A watch that invites you to be different!
To wear this watch, you will have to break free from the most fundamental rule of time-reading — the clockwise movement of time that was taught to us from ancestral times.
Indeed, early people read the time with sundials by observing the clockwise movement of the sun in the sky (from left to right) and of the corresponding shade on the dial (from right to left). When our ancestors finally invented the concept of hands (instead of shade) moving around a dial, they naturally decided to keep this clockwise movement that they observed in nature.
However, there is a serious flaw in this decision: the Sun doesn't move clockwise in the sky. It's an illusion, it actually doesn’t move at all. It is the Earth that moves in a counterclockwise direction around the Sun!
The sun follows a clockwise movement in the sky when it is seen from the Earth’s northern hemisphere: in the southern hemisphere, it goes in the opposite direction. The reason why early watchmakers decided to replicate on dials the clockwise movement as seen in the northern hemisphere is simply because this is where they always lived (and as a matter of fact where 90% of the world population has always lived).
The Raketa Watch Factory corrected this mistake by designing a watch where the movement of time follows the natural movement in the Universe.
This watch is certainly not for the faint-hearted but rather for people who are willing to stand out from the crowd and be different!
A watch that is true to Raketa’s DNA
By following the movement in the Solar System, this watch underlines the link between Raketa and the Cosmos: the brand Raketa (which means “Space Rocket” in Russian) was created in 1961 in honour of the first manned space flight by the Soviet cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin. Since then, Raketa’s designers and engineers were always inspired by space and regularly made watches for cosmonauts and watches celebrating the Solar System.
A watch with a very special movement
The counterclockwise movement of the hands is powered by a very special Raketa automatic movement (2615R). The engineers of the Raketa Watch Factory inverted the movement of the hands by changing the construction of the 2 most important parts of the mechanical movement: the mainspring barrel and the anchor module! This engineering feat could only be accomplished because Raketa produces in-house 100% of these parts.

"Raketa Copernicus"
An original line of unusual watches!
A two-piece case measuring 40.5 mm in diameter,
with an integrated bezel and domed sapphire crystal
and, above all, unusual calibres and displays.
Inspired by a Soviet model, this automatic watch pays tribute to the science of the universe.
The first Raketa "Copernicus" watch was launched in the early 1980s, and it is no coincidence that it bears the name of the famous astronomer.
Its design is inspired by the Copernican conception of the Universe, which in the 16th century provoked a real revolution of consciousness:
at the center of the system is the Sun, while the Earth and the Moon revolve around it (and not the other way around, as previously believed).
The large circle (the minute hand) symbolizes the Earth orbiting the sun in 1 year, while the small circle (the hour hand) symbolizes Jupiter orbiting the sun 12 times slower: indeed, the hour hand turns 12 times slower than the minute hand!
The calibre that equips Copernicus watches is the classic Avtomat 2615, visible through the window opening on the back of the steel case.

Raketa Sonar 0317
Experience the world of submariners!
A new reference among Russian submariners
Raketa brings back to its tool collection one of its most legendary watch models — the Raketa “Sonar” for Russian submariners.
The Raketa Watch Factory is located in Saint-Petersburg, on the shores of the Baltic sea, and it therefore always had a strong tradition of making watches for Soviet seamen and submariners. Living underwater for many months, Soviet submarine crews needed a sturdy watch with a robust 24-hour movement to allow them to distinguish day from night. The Raketa “Sonar” watch model continues Raketa’s tradition of making such specialised 24 hour watches for submariners.
The Raketa “Sonar” model is a submariner’s watch by design and functionality:
- Its hands are inspired by the design of the hands in Russian submarines’ control panels;
- These hands are powered by a Raketa 24 hour automatic movement (Raketa 2624ะ calibre) that allows submariners to distinguish day from night during their long underwater missions;
- The dial and hands are luminescent to allow submariners to read the time in the dark;
- 6 lines (in red and blue colours) divide the perimeter of the dial into 6 quarters (4 hours each) allowing each crewmember to keep count of his watches/shifts in the submarine;
- The automatic movement has a bi-directional rotor which doubles the winding-up efficiency of the watch (which is particularly useful in the cramped conditions of the submarine).

Limited edition
A limited series of automatic Russian watches dedicated to sea lovers. The dial of this "Seaman" watch bears the maritime cardinal marks used to delimit dangerous zones, as well as the names of the watches with the corresponding time intervals during which Russian sailors are on watch. The word "RAKETA" and the numbers from "0" to "9" are written using the flags of the "Maritime Alphabet" which is used in the navy to transmit messages between ships. The 24-hour dial allows the watch to be used as a solar compass (by aligning the hour hand with the sun) which is useful in case the electronic compass on the ship no longer works. The 44mm watch case is water-resistant to 200 meters, making it perfectly suitable for use by "sailors". The calibre is decorated with painted marine motifs.

The "Russian Code 0286"
Limited edition of 500 pieces.
Change direction with this counter-clockwise watch!
A watch that beats to the rhythm of the Universe.
Manufacture Raketa presents a new edition of one of its most popular models of recent years:
The Raketa "Russian Code", whose hands turn anti-clockwise.
The brushed stainless steel case measures 40.5 mm in diameter and features a domed sapphire crystal,
The matt metal dial is anthracite grey, with a 3D representation of the universe.
The watch comes on a black leather strap.
Behind its discreet design lies a revolutionary concept: the idea that time should flow in harmony with nature. According to the laws of astronomy, the Earth turns on itself in an anti-clockwise direction, and so does the Moon, which revolves around the Earth in the same way as the Earth revolves around the Sun.
The Raketa "Russian Code" watch reproduces this natural movement of the stars in the Universe by turning all the hands in the opposite direction to the usual one, thus highlighting the fact that the usual reading of time is not necessarily the most accurate one!
Through the caseback, you'll see a decorated automatic movement, entirely manufactured and assembled at the Raketa watchmaking factory in Saint Petersburg. Are you ready to adopt the new "Russian Code" that beats to the rhythm of the universe?Take a look at the photos of this new Raketa Russian Code watch in the slideshow below...

"Raketa Avant Garde"
Design by Emir Kusturica, famous film director and friend of the brand.
Famous throughout the world, the Russian Avant-Garde influenced the entire European artistic culture. The famous film director Emir Kusturica, a great admirer of Russian culture and art, revisited the spirit of the Russian avant-garde. The "Avant-garde" watch attracts attention by the expressivity of its lines, as do the paintings of a Malevitch, a Kandinsky or any other talented Russian avant-garde artist.
Round and triangular hands, typical forms of avant-garde art, run across the dial. Their smooth running is ensured by the "Raketa - Avtomat 2615" automatic movement, which is entirely manufactured by the "Raketa" Watchmaking Manufacture in St Petersburg.
The new 2023 model presents a full open back, allowing to see all the movement.

"Raketa Ekranoplan"
Between sky and sea !
Built by the Soviet Union in the early 1980s as an experimental coastal defence craft - part plane, part boat - the Ekranoplan can be considered one of the most extraordinary and unusual machines ever created by man. The Ekranoplan combined the best qualities of a ship and an aeroplane: it could move as much cargo as a ship and could fly as fast as an aeroplane, reaching speeds of 500 km/h. It could fly distances of up to 2,000 km thanks to the "screen effect" that formed under its huge wings at around 4 metres above the surface of the water. This enabled it to travel undetected by radars. Its name "Lun" translates from Russian as "the harrier", and not without reason, as this bird of prey is known for its silent, low-flying hunting.
A reminder of the past
The only Ekranoplan Lun ever built now lies on a beach on the Caspian Sea near the town of Derbent (Russia), as a lonely reminder of past Soviet achievements. Its gigantic size, unique features and strange design bear witness to the strength and originality of Soviet engineering. Even today, almost fifty years after its conception, it looks incredibly futuristic.
A watch as testimony to the Ekranoplan Lun
The Raketa Watch Factory has always been inspired by incredible human and technical achievements. By launching this model, Raketa wishes to draw attention to the Ekranoplan Lun and thus contribute to its preservation.
Raketa hopes this will attract more attention to the Ekranoplan, and thus contribute to saving it. Especially for this model, Raketa developed a new stainless steel case of 41,6 mm diamter and a new metal band: its sturdy design corresponds to the looks and spirit of the Soviet-era Ekranoplan.
The Raketa "Ekranoplan" watch is directly linked to the Lun-class Ekranoplan: - The insert of the rotating bezel is made from a piece of metal from the Lun-class Ekranoplan, officially given by the city of Derbent which is in charge of safeguarding the Ekranoplan; - The double “0” on the dial reminds the front view of the Ekranoplan with the two circular containers positioned above its cockpit;
The design of the compass markings on the bezel is directly inspired by the design of the compass on the control panel in the cockpit of the Ekranoplan; - An embossed image of the Ekranoplan is printed on the dial. The back of the watch reveals the 24-hour automatic movement which is entirely produced by the Raketa Watch Factory in Saint-Petersburg.
The Raketa “Ekranoplan” watch model is limited to 500 pieces. Each watch model is complemented with a leather strap.
The model is also available as part of a Gift set which includes the Raketa “Ekranoplan” watch model with stainless steel bracelet, an additional leather strap and a 1:400 scale model of the Lun-class Ekranoplan.

"Raketa Sputnik 1"
The dream of space conquest on your wrist!
But also a "Fellow Traveller" on your wrist!
(The translation of Sputnik in russian)
The launch of Sputnik-1 in 1957 was the beginning of the space age, and its loud and repeated “Beep! Beep!” signals announced it to the whole world!
Raketa watch "Sputnik-1" is launched in honor of the anniversary of the world's first artificial earth satellite - Sputnik-1 and has just been presented at the end of 2022.
65 years ago, in the middle of the Cold War, the Soviet Union announced to the world that it had launched the very first artificial Earth satellite into space. This small metal sphere with four long external antennas was given a friendly codename “Sputnik”, which means “fellow traveller” in Russian.
The watch Raketa “Sputnik-1” has a direct link with the original Sputnik-1 in two ways:
The design of its 24-hour dial is directly inspired by the Soviet watch design “Sputnik” created by the Raketa Watch Factory in 1974. This Soviet-era watch design was shown and approved by the construction bureau that had developed the real Sputnik-1!
Its dial is made of exactly the same special alloy as the metal heat shield that covered the sphere of Sputnik-1, an aluminium–magnesium alloy. The alloy’s reference – AMg6 – is engraved on the lower part of the dial.
This edition is limited to 500 pieces, first delivered in Russia, we received the first ones in March 2023.

Raketa Tupolev
Pilot TU-160 & TU-Item 80
A cooperation between Raketa and the aircraft manufacturer Tupolev.
Raketa "Pilot TU-160" & "Pilot TU-Item 080"
Two models of automatic watches for pilots running in 24 hours, were designed in collaboration with engineers of the aircraft manufacturer "Tupolev". Like the supersonic aircraft Tu-160, nicknamed the White Swan, the watches "Pilot Tu-160" are distinguished by a sober design, practicality and reliability. The TU-160 model with the 24-hour Avotmat 2624 caliber has a 24-hour dial and was developed to allow the time to be read when it is difficult to distinguish night from day, as is the case during high-altitude flights at more than 17,000 meters or beyond the Arctic Circle. The second model, codenamed "Item 80", is an edition limited to 200 pieces, the first 50 pieces being reserved for "Tu" pilots. This watch has endured the most extreme tests during real flights in "Tu" bombers. The 24 H Avotmat 2624 caliber and its 24 H dial make it possible to read the time during flights of more than 15 hours at high altitude when the curvature of the earth makes it difficult to distinguish night from day.

Raketa "Baikonur"
& the cosmos
In the absence of gravity, the watch's automatic winding system cannot work in the space station, so cosmonauts have to use the manual winding function. This includes a special system that disengages the automatic winding module to protect it and prevent premature wear and tear while the watch is in space. The 24-hour dial makes it possible to distinguish between day and night on board the space station. The 24-hour dial also allows the watch to be used as a solar compass, by aligning the hour hand towards the sun. This is useful in case the "Soyuz" spacecraft does not land in the right place in the Taiga and the electronic compass of the spacecraft no longer works (which has already happened).

Raketa"Seaman" 24 H Limited Edition
A limited series of automatic Russian watches dedicated to sea lovers. The dial of this "Seaman" watch bears the maritime cardinal marks used to delimit dangerous zones, as well as the names of the watches with the corresponding time intervals during which Russian sailors are on watch. The word "RAKETA" and the numbers from "0" to "9" are written using the flags of the "Maritime Alphabet" which is used in the navy to transmit messages between ships. The 24-hour dial allows the watch to be used as a solar compass (by aligning the hour hand with the sun) which is useful in case the electronic compass on the ship no longer works. The 44mm watch case is water-resistant to 200 meters, making it perfectly suitable for use by "sailors". The calibre is decorated with painted marine motifs.

This exceptional watch was developed with the help of Captain Valery Dyakonov who knows this submarine particularly well: he supervised the pre-launch stages of the Leopard, conducted its sea trials and was its first commander until 1996. He now lives in Saint-Petersburg next to Raketa. When presented with the first sample of this watch, he said: “This is the first time in many years that I have touched my Leopard submarine and I will now keep it with me forever!”

Feel the experience of flying to space
Officially made from a metal piece of the “Soyuz-2.1ะฐ” space launcher and from the fabric of the Russian space suit “Sokol”, this 24-hour automatic watch brings you very close to the experience of flying to space.
This rocket took off on 14 October 2020 and made a record breaking 3 hour flight from the Baikonur launch pad to the ISS. The Russian cosmonauts who were in this rocket participated in the production of this watch. They both explained that the only crucial complication needed in space is a 24-hour movement to enable them to distinguish day from night in the ISS (where they have 16 sunrises and sunsets every 24 hours).
While you are still on Earth, you can wear this watch with a leather strap (offered with the watch). Both the “space suit” strap & the leather strap have a “quick-change” system so that you can easily change them depending on where you are: training on Earth or flying to Space!
This Raketa watch, limited to 300 pieces per dial, was produced at the Raketa Watch Factory in collaboration with the Russian space agency “Roscosmos”. It is delivered with an additional (leather) strap, the official insignia of this space mission, a brochure providing more detailed explanation and a certificate of Roscosmos (certifying the true origin of the rocket metal and the space suit fabric).๏ปฟ

"Raketa Avant Garde" 0279
This is not a watch:
this is “art in motion”!
Following Russia’s strong pioneering tradition in avant-garde art, this watch experiments with colourful abstract shapes: the watch thus resembles an avant-garde painting! But this picture is not frozen in time. As time passes the picture constantly changes, animated by the circular motion of the geometric shapes floating around the dial at different speeds. Every time you look at your wrist, you will see a new composition to which you can give a different meaning depending on your mood & your imagination. Raketa has transformed a watch into “art in motion”! Welcome to the avant-garde!
The movement of these abstract geometric shapes floating around the dial is powered by an automatic movement Avotmat 2615 entirely designed and produced at the Raketa Watch Factory in Saint Petersburg.

Raketa Classic BIG ZERO
"Malevitch 0273"
Most will hate it. Few will love it. Exactly how the Raketa manufacture want it.
This watch is a collaboration between the Raketa Watch Factory and the State Tretyakov Gallery (Russia’s main museum of national art).
Raketa didn’t try to do a beautiful watch. The brand did a radically abstract watch that doesn’t follow the conventional rules of classic aesthetics. Exactly like the Russian Avant-Garde artist Kazimir Malevitch did in 1915 when he painted the most abstract painting in the world: the Black Square.
When he was asked what was the meaning of his absurd Black Square, Malevitch explained that it symbolises a “Big Zero”: the end of the previous period of artistic evolution and the beginning of a radically new artistic reality. With time, this painting had a tremendous influence on modern art and became one of the most iconic paintings in the world.
Most people will not like this watch. But those who are ready to break-up from traditional classic and step into a new aesthetic reality created from Zero will love it. Exactly like the Black Square of Malevitch.
The handcrafted dial is made in a mosaic of 3 different stones: black jade, white jade and violan. The natural “pattern” of each stone reminds the craquelures that appeared over the years on Malevich’s painting. This makes every watch absolutely unique. The automatic movement is made at the Raketa Watch Factory in Saint-Petersburg. Part of the proceeds will go to the State Tretyakov Gallery.

Reissue of the historic "Polar 0270" model
On the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the creation of the legendary Raketa "Polar" and the 200th anniversary of the discovery of Antarctica by Russian polar explorers, Raketa Watch Manufacture has decided to re-launch the production of this historical model.
In 1969, Raketa was commissioned to design and produce a specialized watch for the polar explorers of the 16th Soviet Antarctic Expedition. As this icy continent experiences polar day and night for successive periods of 6 months a year, the watch had to be not only robust but also have a "24-hour" mechanism to distinguish day from night. The Raketa Watch Factory delivered this watch order in 1970, in time for the departure of the polar expedition. This Soviet watch, with its highly original design, quickly became an iconic model sought after by collectors around the world.
Limited to 200 pieces, this re-edition is in accordance with the original drawings and technical plans that were kept in the Manufacture's archives. Attention! By today's watchmaking standards, this 35 mm watch is a "Ladies" size!

Aviator's watch with date, designed in collaboration with the "Sukhoi" design office.
The Russian aeronautics giant "Sukhoi" approached the watchmakers of the "Raketa" watch Manufacture to design a watch for the pilots of the Russian assault aircraft Su-25. The result of this collaboration is the Raketa "Sukhoi" watch, which withstands the extreme variations in flight load factor on board the legendary Su-25. On this
new Avtomat 2616 calibre with date , the date appears on the dial in a window inside the famous "zero", the distinctive sign of "Raketa" watches. The stainless steel watch case, with a diameter of 43 mm, has a rotating bezel and scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, and a transparent screw-down caseback. It is water-resistant to 200 metres and also has a screw-down crown as most of the Raketa models.
