This year for the watch exhibition BaselWorld 2012 the company Raketa has produced a pair of special surprises. They will include: a new watch mechanism and a watch created in cooperation with Natalia Vodianova.
This year a key innovation of Raketa will be a new manufacturing mechanism Automat 2627, established on the basis of automatic caliber, developed in the 1970s. The modification is not only technically better, but much thinner. More details about the movement Automat 2627 is not known yet - waiting for BaselWorld, which will start very soon - on March 8.
But much more detailed information is available about the second product - a watch that worked on the design of Natalia Vodianova. It is aware of this joint project for a long time, but now we can see some details. For example, the fact is that this watch will be the first in a collection of Raketa with a transparent case back. Unfortunately the image of Natalia Vodianova watch is not yet known to us (unless their design is based on a model of 1970s), but there is information on how the caliber is decorated, visible through the transparent case back. The mechanism is decorated with an engraved image of the sun with radiating rays, inside of which is placed the "2609 AT Raketa", as well as a big heart, which is the logo of the charity Vodianova fund "Naked Heart". By the way the fund will be donated money from the sale of this watch - reportedly about 50%. The main purpose of this fund is to build playgrounds.
About the appearance of new item we know only one thing: the dial will be pearl.
Well, we expect more details at Baselworld. This year Raketa will be located directly opposite the boutique of Franc Vila (Booth 4.1/A11).
