1970s, "RAKETA TV". Vintage Mechanical Wristwatch 📺 MADE IN USSR

We present an interesting vintage watch from the 1970s that perfectly combines style, era, and history 🕰️.
Its unusual design is sure to attract attention. The case and dial are crafted in a distinctive style that resembles the screen of a retro television 📺, which is why this model is popularly known as the "TV" model.

🕰 The dial features a beautiful silvered finish with a “linear fish-eye” effect that shimmers under different lighting. The large golden and black hour markers, paired with gold-plated hour and minute hands, and the bright red second hand, perfectly complement the overall look of the watch.
✨ The chromed case with vertical ridges adds a finished look and emphasizes its unique style.

📰 This model also has an interesting history, which led to its name "Baker":
When a delegation from England visited the PCZ factory, they noticed these unusual watches, which were then experimental models released in limited batches. They were attracted to the original yet understated design of the cases, which stood out compared to other models of that era.
👔 The head of the delegation was an Englishman named Baker, who immediately placed an order for a large batch of these watches for government officials.
This unexpected interest from the foreigners made a big impression on the factory workers. Later, the model was mass-produced and came to be known as "Raketa-Baker" in honor of the English delegation head.

This model is very comfortable and perfectly suited for daily wear 👍.
It fits any men's wrist perfectly and is an excellent choice for those who appreciate not only the appearance but also the high quality of craftsmanship ⛓️.
