If you didn’t wake up this morning having dreamt of owning a new Raketa watch built with genuine submarine steel, go back to bed right now and try again. For those of you that rolled back the duvet with this rather specific desire locked in mind, welcome. If you’re looking for more information on (and some awesome images of) the new Raketa Leopard 24, you came to the right place. Oddballs always stick in the memory. Raketa has quite a track record of creating charming anomalies imbued with an on-brand character. Not all of them hit the mainstream mark, but then, that’s kind of the point. Raketa is a long-running, fervently supported brand in its domestic market. It knows what its followers like. And, it would seem, its followers like it to keep on pushing.

Heavily inspired by 20th-century Russian artists like Malevich and Kandinsky who had a new vision of art, which was characterized by colorful abstract shapes. This new 40.5mm Russian mechanical watch was delivered to our office for a hands-on review, and it caused quite a stir in the process… The fun began when the package arrived. The Raketa box is colorful, decorated with a lot of abstract shapes on its cover. When I pointed my iPhone with Google Translate app at the text on the box, it threw-out “Watch Factory” and “Russia”. The brand name is readable without using that app. Some of the other words are apparently too difficult for this app to translate into English, so perhaps there is a secret message written on the box for the lucky millions that speak Russian without needing to rely upon an app. Inside the gray box, there are two cards. One is an invitation to visit the Raketa factory in Saint- Petersburg. The other one is the warranty card of this “Avant-Garde” watch. Sitting in the gray box, on a gray pillow, is the colorful Raketa “Avant-Garde” watch.

  • From the Ocean's Depths to Your Wrist: the Raketa Leopard 24
    HOME ABOUT ARTICLES THE HAULOGERIUM CONTACT Dimitri Tsilioris 2 days ago 2 min read From the Ocean's Depths to Your Wrist: The Raketa Leopard 24 Located in Saint-Petersburg on the shores of the Baltic sea, the Raketa Watch Factory has had a long and strong tradition in producing watches for Soviet seamen and submariners. Raketa's affinity with the ocean has led it to create its latest timepiece, the Leopard 24. This is a distinct piece that's not only full of character but also carries with it a physical bit of its inspiration from the "Leopard" Akula-class submarine. The Akula-class submarine first entered into service with the Soviet Navy in 1984 and since then has become one of the world's most advanced marine vessels. Each Akula-class submarine has its own designated name, with the "Leopard K-328" being the vessel that donated its metal to Raketa for the Leopard 24 timepiece The Leopard 24 was developed with the help of Captain Valery Dyakonov who supervised the pre-launch stages of the Leopard, conducted its sea trials and was its first commander until 1996. The original metal from the "Leopard L-328" Akula-class submarine was used to make the bezel, but the Leopard 24 features many distinctive details of a true submariner's watch. Its hands replicate the design of the hands in the control panels in the submarine, the dial and hands are luminescent to allow the submariners to read the time in the dark and there are 6 lines (in red and grey colours) dividing the perimeter of the dial into 6 quarters (4 hours each), allowing each submariner to keep count of his shift times in the submarine.

  • In-Depth the Raketa Polar Watch, a Faithful Reissue of Russia's Iconic
    HOME BY BRAND BY FUNCTION BY TYPE TECHNICAL GUIDES VIDEOS SHOP Shop In-Depth The Raketa Polar Watch, a Faithful Reissue of Russia’s Iconic Exploration Watch A limited edition to celebrate one of the most famous Soviet watches. 14 hours ago | By Brice Goulard | 10 minute read | 43 If you think about the natural habitat for watchmakers, images of picturesque places in Switzerland, Germany or Japan might pop up. This is true… today! But back in the golden age of mechanical watchmaking, there was another major player on the watchmaking scene: Russia. And we’re talking millions of watches a year, produced during the Soviet era. The dissolution of the Soviet Union and aggressive privatizations had a dramatic impact on the local industry, until recently and the renewal of Russian watchmaking. Today, we’ll take a closer look at the main representative of this recent rebirth, and also one of the historical Russian brands: Raketa. Today, Raketa launches a reissue of one of its most iconic pieces. Let’s have a closer look at the objectively very cool Raketa Polar Watch (and yes, it’s all made in Russia). RAKETA IN HISTORY The Raketa Watch Factory, founded by Emperor Peter the Great in 1721, is Russia’s oldest factory still active today. Created rst to cut semi-precious stones to adorn the Royal family’s palaces (and then known as the Imperial Lapidary Factory), it was, under the Soviet era, transformed into a watchmaking company. First by delivering jewel bearings for manufactures, then becoming a movements and watches factory.

  • A Quest to Give Russia a Luxury Brand - the New York Times
    15.10.2020 A Quest to Give Russia a Luxury Brand - The New York Times https://nyti.ms/36WR6gK A Quest to Give Russia a Luxury Brand The goal of Raketa’s managing director? To have his line of watches resonate globally, like Prada and Gucci. By Penelope Colston Oct. 12, 2020 ST. PETERSBURG, Russia — Amid the roar of Soviet-era machinery, Sergei Andreev seemed lost in concentration as he sat at the helm of a clunky-looking contraption that produces pallet forks, among the tiny components in mechanical watch movements. Wearing blue coveralls and a solemn expression, he could have been a worker from a bygone industrial age. But this was modern-day Russia, where the 23-year-old Mr. Andreev is one of the 84 workers at the Raketa watch factory, a sprawling 16,145-square-foot two-level facility that dates from 1721 and today houses about 600 vintage machines. The factory has a rare status in the watchmaking world: It produces all but a few of the 242 parts in the brand’s in-house movement, the Raketa- Avtomat, including the pallet fork and the even tinier hairspring, which regulates the oscillation, or “heartbeat,” of a mechanical watch. (Only a few small components, including jewels and leather straps, are purchased from Russian suppliers.) Mr. Andreev’s pallet forks were destined for the 30 models that make up Raketa’s three collections of mechanical watches — Classic, Tool and Curiosity (avant-garde) — all priced from 800 to 2,000 euros ($940 to $2,350). The manufacturer also occasionally produces quartz watches for special collaborations.

  • The Best Tool Watch So Far from Raketa
    T h u r s d a y , J u l y 1 5 , 2 0 2 1 The Amphibia 0252 - My Opinion Is Fact The best tool watch so far from Raketa - Courtesy of Raketa Welcome to today's "My Opinion Is Fact", as I state unequivocally that the Amphibia 0252 is the best of Raketa's "Tool" collection. Courtesy of Raketa Now the naming conventions that Raketa have adopted can be a touch confusing, but to put this in the correct order: the Amphibia's ultimate designation is (when you land on the final link) listed as "Navy" watch. This is a sub category of "Sea" and "In Love With The Sea", which is a sub-category of "Tool". Well, part of the "Freemium" coverage here at Tempus Fugit is to try and give you the information you really need, without making you leap through a payment fire wall, and without requiring a brand to pass 3 pieces of silver across my palm in exchange for coverage ; ) The other pieces making up the "Tool" collection are thoughtfully decorated, but perhaps a wee-bit too much so. A tool watch is meant to be just that. Basic, efficient, offering only what is really needed. Under the hood is Raketa's 2615 - Courtesy of Raketa Per Raketa - MOVEMENT 2615 3 hand movement with avtomat complication (inside the Raketa Classic BIG ZERO) Number of jewels: 27 Testing positions: 4 Average rate (s/d): -10+20 Average running time (h): 40 Frequency/hour: 18.000 / 2.5Hz Bi-directional automatic winding: Yes Stopper of self-winding unit activated during manual Yes winding: The case is of stainless steel and measures 43 mm in diameter, and is rated to be water resistant to a depth of 40 ATM (1355.98) according to Kyle's Converter The other thing that makes this the best of the Raketa Tool collection is the price - € 950 including the VAT.

  • RAKETA INTRODUCES SUBMARINE-CERTIFIED LEOPARD 24 Français Press Release DECEMBER 2020
    RAKETA INTRODUCES SUBMARINE-CERTIFIED LEOPARD 24 Français Press release DECEMBER 2020 With this new model, Raketa keeps up with its tradition of making specialized 24 hour watches for submariners. It is made with original metal from the Russian submarine “Leopard”. o produce this new 24 hour watch for Russian submariners, the Raketa Watch Factory used original T metal from the Russian submarine “Leopard” (Akula class). This exceptional watch was developed with the help of Captain Valery Dyakonov who knows this submarine very 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!” 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 “Leopard 24” watch model continues Raketa’s tradition of making such specialized 24 hour watches for submariners. “Akula” class nuclear powered submarines (their Soviet/Russian designation is “Shchuka-B”) first entered service in the Soviet Navy in 1984 and immediately positioned themselves as one of the most advanced submarines in the world in quietness and survivability.

  • Hands-On the Raketa “Avant-Garde” Limited Edition – from Russia With
    AN ONLINE MAGAZINE DEDICATED TO FINE WATCHES Hands-on The Raketa “Avant-Garde” Limited Edition – From Russia with Love Inspired by the works of Russian avant-garde artists, the dial of this Raketa model sets the bold geometric ¤gures in motion. 11 days ago | By Rebecca Doulton | 6 min read | Raketa, the Russian watch brand that can trace its origins to the days of Peter the Great, presents another watch inspired by Russian avant-garde artists. Last year we saw the brand’s interpretation (https://monochrome-watches.com/raketa-big-zero-malevich- watch-review-price/) of Kazimir Malevich’s Black Square in a wristwatch format. This year the brand releases another “Avant-Garde” limited edition inspired by a communist propaganda lithograph made by El Lissitzky. Produced in the Raketa Watch Factory of Saint Petersburg, this is the third model in the “Avant-Garde” collection with colourful abstract shapes that move around the dial at di¡erent speeds. FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE Raketa is not a conventional brand by any stretch of the imagination. Starting with its colourful history (see box) and its Soviet-era factory where movements, including hairsprings, are produced in-house, Raketa is ¤ercely proud of its heritage and takes inspiration from all thing Russian. Brice visited the factory last year, and his report (https://monochrome-watches.com/5-things-ive-learned-when-visiting-raketa-a-russian- manufacture-and-how-di¡erent-it-is-from-switzerland/) really gives you a feel for what Raketa is all about, in-house choir included! The name ‘Raketa’, which means rocket in Russia, was adopted in 1961 as a tribute to cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin.
