| Buran |
Buran watches are recognized
for their luxurious attributes and features and are of superb quality and
design. Wearing a Buran watch on your wrist will give you complete
confidence and will distinguish you from others. With a more contemporary
design than the Aviator and the Shturmanskie lines, the Buran line of
watches is of finest quality, allowing the use of precious metals, like
gold, in the manufacturing of the watch case and movements. Many of the
exclusive Buran VM watches can be specified with luxurious gem stones like
diamonds or rubies.
Buran, in Russian, has two meanings. The word is pronounced "Bour-ran" and
it means "a snowstorm" or "a blizzard". Hence, the naming of one of our top
Buran lines called the Siberian Buran. The second meaning has to do with the
successful testing of the Russian space shuttle also called Buran, which was
carried out in the Soviet Union on November 15, 1988. The Buran shuttle went
into orbit and flew twice around the Earth before making an unmanned landing
in an auto pilot mode at the Baikonur space center. It was a remarkable
success of national science and technology, which opened up a completely new
stage in the Russian Program of Space Exploration. Several of the Buran
wristwatches were designed in honor of the event. |
