This watch was created for pilots of the Russian supersonic Tu-160 aircraft, known as the White Swan. It is the fruit a collaboration between the Russian aviation giant Tupolev and the Raketa Watch Factory.

Like the supersonic Tu-160 aircraft, the TU-160 Pilot watch is distinguished by its sober design and by its reliability. This watch can support the most violent buffeting. Its case is in stainless steel and the anti-shock system of the mechanical movement protects the mechanism from shocks and vibrations. The dial is protected by a sapphire glass – the second hardest mineral on the planet after diamond. This model has luminous hands and figures, which are perfectly readable during long night flights.

The “Raketa - Avtomat” automatic movement is one of the most reliable in the world and is entirely produced by the Raketa Watch Factory in Saint Petersburg.
