Raketa has unveiled the latest version of its Pilot watch, a robust tool watch designed for professional aviators and enthusiasts.
Inspired by early 20th-century pilot watches, the model sticks to the brand’s principle of “nothing superfluous,” spotlighting durability, readability and precision.
The 42mm stainless steel case features a mix of glossy and satin finishes and comes fitted to a matching steel bracelet, with an extra genuine leather strap included.
A screw-down crown ensures 200m water resistance, making it suitable for all conditions.
Legibility here is key: Super-LumiNova is applied to the large numerals, markers, and wide hands, including a bright yellow seconds hand.
A double anti-reflective sapphire crystal enhances readability further, with a matte black dial styled like an aircraft instrument.
Inside beats Raketa’s in-house Caliber 2615, a 24-jewel automatic movement produced entirely in Saint Petersburg.
It offers 40 hours of power reserve, bi-directional winding, and is decorated with traditional Neva waves.
