Unique Rare Russian Watch: Raketa Polar (24-Hour Dial)

This is a rare mechanical Raketa Polar model, produced in the 1990s. The watch is distinguished by its unique 24-hour dial and a clean, functional design.

Key Features:

Movement: Reliable mechanical movement with automatic winding (self-winding).
24-Hour Format: Unlike standard watches, the hour hand makes only one full rotation every 24 hours. This allows you to see the entire daily cycle at a glance without needing an AM/PM indicator.
Purpose-Built Design: Originally developed for environments where distinguishing day from night is difficult—such as the Arctic, Antarctica, space, or submarines.
Heritage: Manufactured at the Petrodvorets Watch Factory, Russia's oldest factory, known for producing specialized timepieces for explorers and military personnel.

Condition:
The watch is in New Old Stock (NOS) condition. A full professional service was performed in Ukraine in 2026, ensuring the movement is clean, oiled, and accurately adjusted. Due to this expert maintenance, the condition is listed as Seller refurbished.
