**Raketa** (also: **Watch Factory Petrodvorets**) is a Russian watch manufacturer.

Petrodvorets watch factory is the oldest watch factory in Russia. It was founded under Peter the Great in [[1721]]. Since [[1961]] it has been producing models with the name Raketa. All parts of the watches are made in own production.

The fabrication takes place in Peterhof (Petrodvorets), Saint Petersburg.

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, the factory [[1992]] was transformed into a stock company.

Due to economic sanctions imposed by the USA and the EU, it was decided to supply only part of the watch production to these territories.
