STURMANSKIE GAGARIN VINTAGE TITANIUM HANDWINDING WATCH 2609/3707128
STURMANSKIE GAGARIN VINTAGE TITANIUM HANDWINDING WATCH 2609/3707128
First produced in 1949, Sturmanskie watches were originally designed exclusively for the Armed Forces and Navy Fleets of the USSR. These watches were not sold to the public and were mostly issued to service men on completion of their training.
In 1961 Yuri Gagarin took a specially produced Sturmanskie watch into space for the world's first manned space flight cementing the companies reputation for technical achievement . Since then Sturmanskie have been used by many Soviet and Russian astronauts including Alexei Leonov who in 1965 wore a Sturmanskie watch during the world's first space walk.
Since 1983 these watches have been made available to the public and are still produced in the city of Moscow only minutes from the Kremlin. Still a cult brand we're proud to be one of only a handful of dealers offering these watches to knowledgeable western enthusiasts.

At Watchfinder General our mission is to supply British watch enthusiasts with interesting and obscure watch brands that aren't available on the high street. We're passionate about timepieces, understanding that a watch is more than a tool for telling the time. For a man a watch may be his only item of jewellery and therefore acts as an expression of his tastes and interests. Combined with the aesthetic appeal is the joy of the workmanship and engineering. Like a high performance car, a watch is both a work of art and a product of decades of design and engineering knowledge. Here at Watchfinder General we believe that it's worth going that extra mile to find the timepieces that inspire you and we aim to offer watches that you're unlikely to see on another mans wrist. The brands we choose produce reliable watches with a fine heritage.
