I bring to your attention rare wristwatch "SPUTNIK Satellite" - ChChZ (Chistopol Watch Factory). Sputnik 1, "Satellite-1", PS-1, or Elementary Satellite-1 was the first Earth-orbiting artificial satellite. It was launched into an elliptical low earth orbit by the Soviet Union on 4 October 1957, and was the first in a series of satellites collectively known as the Sputnik program.
The unanticipated announcement of Sputnik 1's success precipitated the Sputnik crisis in the United States and ignited the Space Race within the Cold War. On 30 January 1956 the Council of Ministers of the USSR approved practical work on an artificial Earth-orbiting satellite.
