Artem Ovcharenko and Anna Tikhomirova will design watches for Raketa company

Artem Ovcharenko and Anna Tikhomirova have recently learnt about Raketa — the company that already counts three hundred years of history and which is one of the few manufactures in the world that produces watch movements from A to Z.

The acquaintance with the creative director of the factory Count Jacques Von Polier has brought to an excellent idea of cooperation.

The celebrity couple was engaged into creation of a new design of watches. To develop a new unique design for the model “Raketa – Premier” will be the main goal of Artem, whilst Anna will be responsible for updating the design of “Raketa – Ballerina” watch.

Furthermore, Artem and Anna are working on the photo shooting and video, which will be granted to the employees of the factory as a present. It has been carrying on with the Moscow Creative bureau.

For the Raketa Watch Factory factory the new “Premier” design and the updated look of the model “Ballerina” is a successful continuation of the collaboration with celebrities.

It is really a significant honor for Raketa to be able to collaborate with such famous representatives of the ballet art as Anna and Artem and the factory would like to thank them for this unique opportunity!

The Petrodvorets Watch Factory «Raketa», Russia’s oldest factory, was founded by Peter the Great in 1721. The Factory is producing watches under the brand «Pobeda» (Victory) since the End of World War II. In 1961 the brand «Raketa» (Rocket) was launched in honor of Russian cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin.

The Petrodvorets Watch Factory is one of the rare watch factories in the world that fully manufactures its own movements from A to Z, including hairspring and escapement.
