Петергоф. Снова. Воистину памятник мировой архитектуры и дворцово-паркового искусства. Прекрасные фонтаны! Пётр I знал, где лучший вид на Финский залив! Потрясающее место. Построил тут себе всякое в XVIII веке. Заглянули с мужем в мой любимый Монплезир. Большая коллекция голландской живописи, разнообразного фосфора, стекла. Личные вещи Петра. Екатерининский корпус, построенный Растрелли по заказу Елизаветы, но обретший название в честь другой женщины после дворцового переворота. Красивые залы, прикладное искусство. В желтом зале находится знаменитый парадный Гурьевский сервиз. Около 5000 предметов. После я рискнула! И меня окатило из фонтана-шутихи (раньше очень стеснялась делать подобные вещи. Сейчас я более смелая))). Потом ходила мокрая и довольная! Было жарко! (Выложу видео в сторис и закреплю в актуальном, как и все из поездки. Пока времени нет, но я обещаю!) Банный корпус при монплезирском ансамбле впечатлил красивым внутренним садом. Сами бани уютные. Бассейн-шутиха. Душ-люстра. Впечатляющая кухня и обеденная зала. Долго гуляли по парку, но начался дождь! Еле ноги унесли. Не попали в форт Константин из-за бури, которая началась на море. Ветер был такой, что ух! Немного поездили и погуляли по Кронштадту. В парк Патриот с корабликами не пошли. Я боялась, что ветер меня сдует, и меня придётся багром вытаскивать, а оно мне надо? #санктпетербург #монплезир #петергоф #екатерининскийкорпус #банныйкорпус #петродворец #Petergof #saintpetersburg #Petrodvorets #TsarskoyeSelo #monplaisir (at Петергоф.

Hi everyone!
Today I received this watch - as a little New Year's gift for myself - a Soviet Raketa straight from the 80s.
And here’s a little story about it :)
Tumblr media
The watch "Raketa"-"Zero" ( rus. Большой ноль, "Big Zero") of the Petrodvorets Watch Factory appeared in 1984-1985.
By order of the All-Union Society of the Blind, a watch design with a white dial, large contrasting numbers and wide hands was developed for visually impaired people.
By 1986, the release of this model was planned to be discontinued, since enough watches were produced for the Society, and ordinary citizens didn’t need them. Perestroika has begun.
For the first time this design became popular thanks to the General Secretary of the CPSU Central Committee Mikhail Gorbachev. During an international summit in Italy, he was asked to explain what “perestroika" means. Gorbachev just pointed at his Raketa “Big Zero" watch and said: "It's like on my watch: the Russians want to start everything from ground zero!"
Tumblr media
The phrase immediately made headlines in Italian newspapers. That's how the legend of “Big Zero" began!
Tumblr media
Italian entrepreneurs came to the Petrodvorets Watch Factory. The watch with "zero" delighted them and they made a huge order for themselves, the demand for everything related to "perestroika" in the West was very great at that time.
From that moment on, the production of all kinds of exterior designs of the "zero" began at the PWF: on the theme of perestroika (with images of Soviet symbols), pocket watch, in classic cases, with black dials and even with a holographic film on the dial.
