Conquest of the
Beyond

Sturmanskie was the first
watch in outer space. In 1961,
Yuri Gagarin, the Russian
cosmonaut, became the first
human to travel into space and
wore a basic Sturmanskie
mechanical watch.
The watch performed perfectly throughout
the flight in conditions of zero gravity, strong
accelerations, unpredictable vibrations
and varying temperatures. It became the
first timepiece in the world designed and
manufactured to go into space. Russian
cosmonauts and astronauts from France,
Germany, Japan, India and Poland in the
International Space Program wore
Sturmanskie wristwatches for their
reliability in extreme conditions.
The mission of the Sturmanskie brand is
to reliably serve the people conquering the
turbulent sea, the many elements on Earth
and in outer space. With a heritage that
combines the top watchmakers, designers
and engineers, their legacy brings nearly a
century of experience to the Sturmanskie
design. With their passion for exploring

aeronautics and a skilled precision in
watchmaking, each Sturmanskie is made
with reliability, durability and attention
to detail.
Sturmanskie watches are still manufactured
and sold to the general public today and
have been updated considerably for the
current conditions. For many of its models,
Sturmanskie draws inspiration and pays
tribute to new frontiers, adventure
and exploration.
Ocean Stingray
These are inspired by legendary marine
chronometers and Soviet diving watches,
which are now represented in the
Sturmanskie collection. A new divers’
watch from Sturmanskie is Ocean Stingray,
with a crown guard and oversized protective
screw cap. The best of dive watch heritage.
As time does not stand still, the model has
undergone a new evolution in line with
innovative trends of the time requiring
more comfort, an individual stylish design
and improved ergonomic properties
from watches.
Sturmanskie timepieces are exclusively
available in Indonesia at Red Army Watches
in Grand Indonesia and Senayan City.
