Pure Form - Pure Colour
Color in watch design traditionally occupies a minor place. Usually there’s much more focus on form and functionality. However, for example, in automotive design with all the attention to the technical aspects, ergonomics and plastic of the form, color plays such a huge role that it is inseparable from the image. It is worth remembering sports cars: how much less interesting would be the perception of the car, if there was no color!
Creating a collection of Mars Lady, the brand decided to use the color as the main design element that will form the basis of the expression of the individuality of the watch owner, starting with a burning bright red hue. Having such a brilliant actor on stage, the brand decided to minimize all other elements, and created a watch of a clean concise form.
Pure geometric form, black and red the echo of the Russian avantgarde, from which grew the entire modern design.
About Sturmanskie
The Russians were the first to explore space on 12 April 1961 when cosmonaut, Yuri Gagarin, orbited the Earth in his Vostok-1 for one hour and forty-eight minutes. On his wrist, he wore a Sturmanskie watch, the first special timepiece in the world designed and manufactured to go in to space.
Withstanding the severe conditions of zero gravity, strong accelerations, unpredictable vibrations, and varying temperatures, Sturmanskie was the first brand to make astronomical feats in the watch world.
Its innovation was owed to the nautical and aviation chronometers originally developed for the Military Air Forces and Navy by the First Moscow Watch Factory.
The brand Sturmanskie was first launched in 1949. Back then, it was exclusively available for the Armed Forces and Navy of the USSR. It was only in 1983 that Sturmanskie watches were made available to the general public.
Sturmanskie designs continue to be inspired by and pay homage to new frontiers, adventure and exploration.
