Lightweight High-Tech Models for Active Business Professionals
RADO's high-tech ceramic watches are highly scratch-resistant, maintaining their pristine condition over time. Beyond their aesthetic appeal that seamlessly integrates into any business setting, they are approximately 25% lighter than stainless steel and adapt to skin temperature, offering a light and comfortable wearing experience.
Encased in plasma high-tech ceramic, the 'True Thinline' collection features a large, highly legible dial. The 'True Thinline Power Reserve' offers a choice of vibrant blue or black dials with a beautiful sunray pattern, and a power reserve indicator at the 9 o'clock position. With a power reserve of up to 80 hours, it is a timepiece befitting busy business professionals.
The 'True Thinline Grand Second' is distinguished by two overlapping subdials on its face. The contrast between the sunray and polished finishes harmonizes beautifully.
A black leather strap paired with the silver dial will lend an elegant touch to your wrist.
Minimal yet stylish design
The 'True Automatic Open Heart,' characterized by its minimalist yet stylish design, features a beautiful mother-of-pearl dial, only 0.6mm thick, that shifts its expression with changes in angle and light. Furthermore, the watch's heart, subtly visible through the mother-of-pearl dial, resembles the moon reflected on water, creating a sense of ethereal suspension. Crafted from smooth, lightweight full ceramic, it offers unparalleled comfort, feeling almost as if nothing is being worn, while also boasting a practical 80-hour power reserve.
