History of the brand
“Raketa” is a watch brand produced by the Petrodvorets Watch Factory, one of the oldest factories in Russia. The company was one of the 13 largest watch factories in the Soviet Union; it established mass production of watches for personal use. The Raketa watches, produced in Petrodvorets, were exported to more than 30 countries around the world.
The first batch of Raketa brand watches was released in 1961. The brand was named in honor of Gagarin's flight, but in Western Europe and America the name was associated more with the missile weapons of the USSR.
At the Petrodvorets Watch Factory, a single mechanism was created for all models of the Raketa-2609NA watch, on the basis of which more than two dozen modifications of the Raketa watch were produced: with automatic winding, with a calendar, anti-magnetic, for the blind (2610NA), with 24-hour scale (2623.N) - for people working in difficult conditions where it is difficult to distinguish day from night: polar explorers, submariners, etc.
The first watches under the Raketa brand were the Rossiya, Record, and Petrodvorets models. The Record watch was the second original design, at 2.7mm thick it remains the flattest ever made in the USSR and the world's thinnest mechanical watch with a second hand. In 1965, the Record watch received a gold medal at the international Leipzig fair.
Mass production of Raketa watches began in 1964, and by 1980 the plant annually produced 4 million 600 thousand copies of Raketa watches.
