It was a series of beeps that came from a 183-pound Soviet spacecraft that whipped around the Earth's orbit every ninety-eight minutes. Those beeps were proof that Sputnik 1, the first artificial satellite was a successful mission. Sputnik became a sensation as it was the first man-made artificial earth satellite visible for everybody. That day, October 4th 1957, Soviet Union not only made their mark in history, but also launched the Space Race. Dedicated to the success of Sputnik, this watch has a classic design and fits comfortably on the wrist. Each piece comes with one pre-mounted leather strap in a beautiful Sturmanskie gift box.
