Palekh Watch / Watch "Aviation No. 54" quartz, author's hand-painted, artist Mamina, black strap

Quartz watch "Aviation" with a painting on the dial – made by artisan Mamina M. The miniature depicts the Soviet fighter aircraft of the Second World War — Yak-1. The medium-range fighter-interceptor Yak-1 was used on all fronts of the Great Patriotic War and left a significant mark in the history of aviation. This watch is not just a beautiful accessory, but a real piece of art that retains the warmth of handmade work and centuries-old traditions of craftsmanship. The dial was created in the village of Palekh in compliance with all the classical stages of miniature painting. Folk tales, traditional ornaments and the unique beauty of nature became the inspiration for the art pieces. An important feature of the painting is an incredibly precise drawing of compositions. When you pick up a watch, you feel the craftsmanship in every detail of the design. The creation of a single dial can take the whole month because of such delicate work. Unique watches are not only painted, but also assembled by hand at the legendary «Poljot» watch factory. Due to precise work, production volumes are limited, so all products are presented in a single copy.On each dial you can see the artist's signature and the serial number. However, we can repeat your favorite model upon prior request. The Palekh watch is an exclusive GlobalRusTrade project, which is available only on our website.
