Description: Unique, inimitable, vintage, reliable mechanical watches with a rich and interesting history are the best gift. They differ from the Soviet version only in the inscription on the dial. Otherwise, everything is the same, no differences. The watch is FACTORY, original (not a remake, not restored, not a copy, not a modern Chinese fake with which the site is full). Every year there are fewer and fewer original new factory watches, and there won't be any more of them. The watch is completely new (NOS), from storage, as if from a store display, without traces of use. Back cover with factory tag. A branded individual “Raketa” box, a passport and a new black leather Spanish strap will be included. Gorgeous, rare, original, historical copy in Cyrillic, for the domestic market. An ideal piece for a collection, for everyday wear, or as a gift. Don't miss your unique opportunity! The watch number on the back cover and in the passport are the same. The set includes a new high-quality Spanish black strap made of genuine leather (if desired, can be replaced with a branded brown PChZ strap made of reptile leather). The best price on eBay for brand new (NOS, from storage, as from a store window), original, luxury, collectible watches after full service (repassage) with high-quality expensive Swiss Moebius oil (used for modern Swiss premium watches). Warranty on the movement (operation) of the mechanism is 1 year. The accuracy of the watch is adjusted, no worse than a Swiss watch, better than factory tolerances. The price for modern models of Raketa-Zero watches from the Petrodvorets Watch Factory starts from 110 thousand rubles. These vintage Soviet watches are thinner and more comfortable to wear than their modern version, so I definitely recommend them. And of course, for Soviet reliability too (the most reliable caliber in the USSR, “Raketa 2609.NA” with 19 ruby stones, is installed inside this model). Now this is the most popular and sought-after design among all Soviet watches, including thanks to the release of a new model (the cost of which starts from 110 thousand rubles and more). Unisex, suitable for both men's and women's hands. Don't miss your unique opportunity! Iconic, legendary, recognizable, original model with a unique concept and interesting history. This is perhaps one of the most collectible models of Soviet watches. Over time, their value only increases, as the number of original factory copies is rapidly decreasing. Everything, down to the last screw, is Soviet-made, in contrast to the huge number of new-made, pseudo-Soviet watches with Chinese dials or cases that are now filling the market. Complete set: brand new (NOS) watch, branded individual Raketa box, passport (the watch was released on May 26, 1993), black leather strap. A classic and at the same time quite large watch with an interesting design. Case dimensions in diameter 38 mm – 40 mm with 3G. Due to the large dial, the case looks thin and elegant, but at the same time large. The case is chrome-plated and has the shape of a truncated barrel, due to the beveled lugs for the strap. The watch has a fully polished mirror surface. The dial is made in white. The hour markings are made in the form of black triangular markers and Arabic numerals - 0, 3, 6, 12. The main solution to this design is not only the large numbers and markers, but also the fact that the time count starts not from “12” o’clock, but from “ 0". The minute markings are made in the form of thin black marks along the contour of the dial. The arrows are thick and straight, with a slight rounding at the ends - they are black in color. The white dial makes the time easy and quick to read. Inside there is a reliable caliber “Raketa 2609 NA” with 19 jewels, with a second hand and has a power reserve of 36 to 42 hours with one full winding of the spring. There is only manual winding and there is no calendar, which makes this mechanism simple and reliable. The watch is in new condition. Fully serviced and set to precise speed - ready for further use. An excellent minimalist, but at the same time extraordinary design option. It’s not for nothing that the Raketa watch factory re-released this model last year, practically without changing the dial itself. The reliable Soviet watch mechanism has undergone a complete professional repair (maintenance, cleaning, lubrication, adjustment/adjustment of the precision) with high-quality expensive Swiss Moebius oil; the watch will not require any additional investments, which is undoubtedly a huge plus and advantage. Iconic, legendary design of the Petrodvorets Watch Factory “Raketa”. The watch “Raketa” - `Big Zero` (`nulevik`, `zero`) of the Petrodvorets Watch Factory on the base caliber “Flat Russia” 2609.NA in the 51st case appeared in 1984-1985. By order of the All-Union Society of the Blind (VOS), a watch design with a white dial, large contrasting signs and wide hands was developed for people with low vision. By 1986, the production of this model was planned to be discontinued, since enough watches were produced for the BOS, and ordinary citizens had no use for them. Perestroika began. Italian entrepreneurs arrived at the Petrodvorets Watch Factory. The clock with “zeroing” delighted them. “But this is a symbol of Perestroika! Gorbachev is starting everything from scratch!” the Italians exclaimed and made a huge order for themselves; the demand for everything “perestroika” in the West was very high at that time. From that moment on, PCHZ began producing all kinds of external designs for the “nulevik”: on the theme of perestroika (with images of Soviet symbols), pocket-sized, in classic cases, with black dials and even with a holographic film on the dial.
