Brand Information: Rado
Rado traces its roots to Lengnau, Switzerland, and to three diligent brothers who in 1917, began producing watch movements within their parents' home. In 1947, Dr. Paul Luthi joined the growing company to expand their Exacto brand. Further expansion was achieved after the company's rebranding and the birth of the Rado name. In 1962, after lengthy experimentation with new-age materials including tungsten and titanium carbide, Rado produced the scratch-resistant Diastar. Through continuous innovation, today's Rado watches are made of ceramic. The patented ceramic is formed by mixing various powders, binding agents and color additives into pressed molds that are fired and polished to an adamantine luster with diamond powder.

Limited Edition of 200 individual watches worldwide. Edition number engraved on gorgeous exhibition case back.
Quiet strength and high precision characterize the New Original Split-Second Chronograph Basel Special by Rado. A certified chronometer limited to 200 pieces, this new interpretation of an icon sets itself apart through its split-second chronograph and its monochrome appearance. Silver performance. Direct. Demanding.
With fine navy blue embellishments underlining the many technical details, the dial displays three counters and a mobile anchor representing the oscillating mass (anchor in small aperture at 4 oscillates as rotor turns). The eye is attracted to one feature after the other, pleased by this contrasting dynamic of forms. The hard metal case is enclosed by a transparent, screw-down, sapphire crystal case back.
The functions of this automatic model are activated by three pushers. A flowing bracelet, luminescent hands, a titanium clasp and a screw-in crown shielded by a protector constitute the final significant details. Sober and precise.
Special Rado Limited Edition Box with silk-screened limited edition black steel plate and special push-button opener. Rado special edition polishing cloth and standard cloth. Rado Chronograph split-second manual. COSC Certificate. Signed Basel Special Edition Rado booklet. |
