Product Description
History
In 1917, three brothers in the small Swiss town of Lengnau, collaborated to set up a clockwork factory to produce watch-movements. As technology advanced rapidly, the brothers Fritz, Ernst and Werner Schlup began to envisage a different future for themselves. In 1957 therefore, the clockwork factory turned out its first range of watches under the name Rado. Having turned into watch-makers, the company rechristened itself to Rado Uhren A.G. In 1968, Rado became part of the ASUAG Group, which in turn became a unit of the SMH Group a few years later. Since 1998, this group has been known as the Swatch Group.
The firm faith in the invincibility of technology has been Rado’s cornerstone. Thus it has been experimenting with different materials, Rado introduced to the watch industry the use of hardmetal, lanthanum, sapphire crystal and ceramics for greater resilience and longer life.
Design
A luxury watch from the house of Rado, this model R12413083 belongs to the DiaStar series, which had been the first scratch-proof watch ever launched. The matte golden designed circular dial, encased within a hardmetal yellow case, is beset with crystals as hour markers. Gold tone hands tick across the face to indicate the change of time. Sapphire crystal precludes the appearance of dust and scratches on the surface of the dial.
The bracelet is entirely composed of gold-coloured PVD coated stainless steel. A fold over clasp with push button and extension, secures this opulent time-piece on the wearer’s wrist.
Features
Swissl automatic movement enhances the performance of this watch. Self-winding, it provides accurate date and time updates. A combined date and day aperture is located at the 6 o’ clock position, offering a clear view. It also comes with a water resistance rating of 5 bars. This implies that the watch mechanism remains unaffected till 100 feet.
