The Raketa Polar – a watch created specially for polar expeditions – is back in Raketa’s permanent collection with a new design.

The journey beyond the polar circle is thorny and difficult: it requires great strength and long distances traveled in extreme conditions, both by land and sea. Following its long tradition of making watches for polar explorers, Raketa has developed a model for people who are ready to set out to conquer these boundless spaces.

The 24-hour dial is essential for time-reading beyond the polar circles where polar day and polar night can last for up to 6 months each. Six lines divide the perimeter of the dial into 6 quarters (4 hours each), allowing each crew member to keep count of his watches/shifts during maritime expeditions.

Another unique feature of the dial is the special Superluminova coating that recalls the northern lights. It covers the entire surface of the dial and hands, ensuring perfect legibility even in total polar darkness.

The solid and robust case, with straight facets and sharp angles, is particularly adapted to the rigors of polar expeditions. Its design is harmoniously completed with a stainless-steel bracelet, emphasizing the masculine character of this timepiece.

The rotating bezel is engraved and enamelled with the names of all the Arctic Ocean seas and their respective time zones, which allows use of the GMT function. This 24-hour watch with a rotating bezel can also be used as a solar compass, both in the northern and southern hemispheres.

The back of the watch reveals the beautifully decorated automatic movement, entirely produced by the Raketa Watch Factory in Saint Petersburg. The finishing of the rotor is reminiscent of the northern lights.

Each Raketa Polar watch comes with a certificate of technical fitness for use in the harshest natural conditions of polar regions. The certificate is issued within the framework of the Arctic Voluntary Certification System by the Nizhny Novgorod Testing Centre.
