Sturmanskie Gagarin Heritage '65th Anniversary Edition Automatic

Sturmanskie Gagarin Heritage Automatic – Limited Edition with Swiss Sellita SW200-1

Only 65 pieces worldwide – one of the rarest modern Sturmanskie editions ever produced.

The Sturmanskie Gagarin Heritage Automatic commemorates one of the greatest moments in human history: April 12th, 1961, when Yuri Gagarin became the first human being to travel into space.

On his wrist during that historic mission was a specially produced Sturmanskie timepiece. The watch performed flawlessly under the extraordinary conditions of weightlessness and became an enduring symbol of the dawn of the Space Age.

This exclusive limited edition captures the spirit of the original 1961 Sturmanskie watches while combining vintage aesthetics with modern Swiss mechanical precision.

An Extremely Rare Collector's Piece

The watch is limited to only 65 individually numbered pieces worldwide, making it one of the rarest contemporary Sturmanskie models available today.

Each watch features a unique serial number engraved on the screw-down case back, ensuring its exclusivity and collectability.

The cream-colored dial, vintage-style Arabic numerals, blued hands, red seconds hand and historic aviation emblem perfectly evoke the atmosphere of the early Space Race era.
