Marking three decades of Art Lebedev Studio, Raketa teams up with Artemy Lebedev for a sharply focused limited edition: the Big Zero Lebedev, capped at just 300 pieces. It reinterprets the brand’s cult classic through a contemporary lens, stripping away noise in favour of crisp geometry and a monochrome palette that feels both assertive and strangely calming. The familiar oversized numerals and signature zero return, but now they sit within an all-black landscape, with matte convex markers, matte dial, and matte hands, punctuated only by the subtle depth of textures. Turn it over and a tinted caseback reveals a black rotor carrying the Studio’s logo, a quiet nod to the collaboration that doesn’t disturb the minimalist intent. Powering the piece is Raketa’s fully in-house automatic calibre 2615, a reminder that the Saint Petersburg manufacture remains one of the few capable of producing movements from start to finish. A first for the brand, the rubber strap comes in a cut-to-fit format, complete with tools and a measuring bracelet. Plus a Lebedev tutorial for those who enjoy a hands-on moment. It all arrives in a black presentation box doubling as a watch case, rounding out a design that values clarity in a cluttered world.
