Energia was the name of an universal space rocket system built by the Soviet Union during the cold war. And the name says it all: with a payload capacity of nearly 100 tons Energia created the basis for many other expeditions and space exploration projects. Along with the payload this rocket system set a milestone with its astonishing booster (tank) system which was then adapted in other projects.
Following the success of the system the Vostok Europe Energia 2 line was created. A rough but clear design emphasizes the resilience of this line. Innovative designs of the cases, the use of gaseous tritium light source (GTLS) as well as newly developed straps top each of these watches off.
Each piece comes with a waterproof dry box and includes two straps. The included tool allows you to change straps within minutes, thus making you extremely flexible for any occasion.

Almaz was the project name for a series of manned and unmanned space stations that were developed by the Soviet Union during the 1960's and had the objectiv to take high resolution pictures from space. What used to be a military project during the cold war strived the exploration of space and became the base for further projects. Among Saljut and Mir the Russian block of the International Space Station (ISS) is based on the findings of the Almaz project.
The Vostok Europe Almaz line features titan, bronze and stainless steel cases. The big variety of straps and colors allow you to customize the watch just the way you want it: either colorful-fresh or simple-ageless.

When Yuri Gagarin (Russ. "Юрий Алексеевич Гагарин") became the first man in space on April 12th, 1961 he was wearing a very special watch. This watch was specifically made for the space flight by Sturmanskie. Just like it's carrier the watch became legendary because it worked flawlessly in weightlessness. Since 1961 Sturmanskie watches have been the official watch of the Soviet and Russian cosmonauts. Dedicated to Yuri Gagarin the Heritage line is inspired by the initial design and high-quality processing. Gagarin Heritage watches do not simply look like the original. They have a high standard in manufacturing and must withstand severe tests, still keeping alive the spirit of the 60's. Each Gagarin watch comes with one pre-mounted leather strap in a beautiful Sturmanskie gift box.

Slava Era (Russ.: "ЭРА") is a line that leads back to the middle of the 20th century. When Sputnik 1 was launched as the first artificial satellite successfully into space, the era of space explorations began. This milestone was just a beginning for many other milestones and inventions in the Soviet Union. Almost any new technological masterpieces, from an electric razor to new cinematic techniques, were captured with this term. Zelenograd, not far from Moscow and better known as "Green City", became and is still the Russian equivalent of the American Silicon Valley. Of course many watches and clocks were further developed or invented during this time. A very popular table clock from the 1960s that could be found in many households is the Slava "Crystal".
The strictly limited Slava Era wrist watches are inspired by the previous table clock. A special feature can be seen at first sight: The refined 45° degree cut-edge of the glass which blends into a high bezel. For additional protection and to make it more scratch resistant the mineral crystal is plated with a sapphire coating. The built in Slava 2427 automatic movement is a true veteran among Russian movements. The manufacturer made every effort to buy up, maintain and check all of the movements that were produced in the 20th century and were part of previous inventories. Thus, all used 2427 movements are original and genuine Slava movements that serve as a new heart for these watches. A second pusher at 2h controls the quick date correction. All Era watches are 10 atm water-proof and the cases are made of 316L stainless steel.
