Raketa’s Baikonur watch is a space-born tribute with real orbital credentials, created to celebrate 65 years since humanity’s first journey beyond Earth, and the birth of the Raketa name itself, meaning “rocket.” Rather than just borrowing space-age designs, this model is purpose-built for cosmonaut use. Its defining feature is a 24-hour dial split into contrasting light and dark halves, letting wearers instantly read day and night, a crucial distinction when circling the planet. Functionality drives every major design choice. A secondary crown controls an additional time zone, allowing simultaneous tracking of mission time and home time, a small but meaningful connection to Earth. Because automatic winding performs poorly in zero gravity, the movement is engineered to protect itself: when manually wound, a special mechanism disengages the self-winding system to reduce wear and preserve long-term reliability. A rotating bezel with a solar compass adds a survival tool, offering directional guidance if electronic systems fail after an off-target landing. The watch is powered by a fully in-house automatic movement made in Saint Petersburg, from components to final assembly. Visible through the caseback, the rotor is decorated with constellation imagery, reinforcing the celestial theme. A Velcro fabric strap fits easily over a spacesuit, while a leather strap is included for terrestrial missions. Practical, mechanical, and proudly cosmic.
