S-T-U-R-manskie, just FYI. I always get the U and R transposed myself, and the way that I remember it is that the first two letters of RUSSIA are NOT the correct order. 😂

"First Man in Space" edition watch, a gift from my wife:

First watch in space worn by the dog Chernushka; first watch on a man in space (the correct watch is this hacking version, not the straight hands version); first on a spacewalk was the white Strela version of this Sekonda 3017; first auto in space (correct reference is 6139-6005, this is 6139-6002, there was also a Dugena auto on that flight); Russian standard military/ space issue in 80s; cheapest analogue in space (not quite the correct reference); and a couple of randoms that are simply space related. Not pictured is my Omega 105012 first on the moon (sold on).
