Product Description

In 1962, Rado revolutionised watchmaking with its scratch-resistant DiaStar. Incorporating the bold and ageless appeal of the first DiaStar, the Original bears the features and functions Rado enthusiasts know and the distinctive look they love. With a quality Swiss automatic movement at its heart it is, quite simply, a Rado legend.

Brand History

Rado, founded in 1917 in Lengnau, Switzerland, began as the Schlup & Co. clockwork factory. The brand launched its first collection of watches in 1957 under the name Rado. Renowned for its pioneering use of materials, Rado introduced the DiaStar in 1962, the world’s first scratch-resistant watch. The company continues to innovate with high-tech ceramics, sapphire crystal, and plasma treatments. Known for its sleek, modern designs, Rado has earned the nickname “The Master of Materials.” Today, it’s celebrated globally for its fusion of cutting-edge technology and timeless elegance.
