Ekranoplan (Steel Bracelet)

Introducing the Raketa "Ekranoplan" Watch, a remarkable timepiece paying homage to the legendary Lun-class Ekranoplan. Inspired by the Soviet-era hybrid machine, this tool watch from the Raketa Watch Factory encapsulates the extraordinary achievements of human engineering.

The Lun-class Ekranoplan combined the characteristics of a ship and an airplane, flying undetected by radars using the "ground effect" generated by its wings. The Raketa "Ekranoplan" Watch features a new stainless steel case and metal band, reflecting the Ekranoplan's rugged aesthetics.

The rotating bezel insert is crafted from metal sourced directly from the Lun-class Ekranoplan, graciously provided by the city of Derbent. The dial showcases a distinctive double "0," reminiscent of the Ekranoplan's frontal view with its circular containers above the cockpit.

Celebrate the Ekranoplan's enduring legacy by wearing the Raketa "Ekranoplan" Watch. Join the mission to raise awareness and preserve the memory of this awe-inspiring Soviet marvel. Own a piece of history on your wrist and embrace the spirit of innovation.
