Raketa

The Raketa Amphibia resurfaces with a bold new update, continuing a deep-sea legacy forged on the icy shores of Saint Petersburg. Built by the storied Raketa Watch Factory—making reliable timepieces for divers, sailors, and submariners since the Cold War—the new Amphibia is no nostalgia trip. It’s a fully modern dive watch engineered to meet today’s underwater standards while staying true to its DNA.

Designed to perform at depths of up to 200 meters, the Amphibia features a robust stainless steel case, a screw-down crown for watertight security, and a unidirectional bezel with tactile, audible clicks for confident dive-time tracking. A high-contrast dial with bold, luminescent hands and indexes ensures instant legibility in murky waters. True to function, the dial leans on orange for key details—science-backed as the most visible color in deep water.

The silicone strap is as thoughtful as it is functional, with full-length perforations to accommodate wetsuits and minimize water retention. A quick-release system makes swapping to the included black strap a breeze, keeping versatility front and center. Powering the Amphibia is Raketa’s in-house automatic movement. Visible through the caseback, the rotor is engraved with a mermaid in the style of Russian folklore—a poetic nod to the deep-sea dreamers among us.
