In the world of horology, there are many rare models that capture the attention of connoisseurs. The manual winding “Golden Key” collection, limited to 300 pieces, was created to unite profound collectible value with esteemed watchmaking tradition.
This limited edition pays tribute to, and offers a modern interpretation of a rare Raketa watch with a wooden case produced in the 20th century. In the fairy tale The Adventures of Buratino (Russian version of Pinocchio), a key opened the door to a world where your most cherished dreams come true. Raketa turns it into the ‘key’ for manual winding a watch. The connection to the fairy tale is further emphasized by the watch case made from natural walnut wood.

Manual winding movement is this model’s defining feature — an experience that connects you directly to the watch’s heartbeat. We made it with a transparent caseback to showcase this artistry. The movement offers a clearer view of its inner workings: rotating the crown reveals the mainspring barrel’s motion, which then propels the gear train. It is a living, breathing process to be both seen and felt.
