Design & Craftsmanship
Patented Plasma High-Tech Ceramic Science
Through an exclusive thermal process where gases are activated at 20,000°C, white ceramic is transformed into a shimmering metallic grey material without using any metal. The resulting plasma high-tech ceramic possesses the sleek sheen of metal while retaining all the benefits of high-tech ceramic: exceptional scratch resistance, lightweight feel, and immediate thermal adaptation to skin temperature.
Architectural Skeleton Calibre R808
At the heart of this timepiece beats the skeletonized Swiss Calibre R808. Designed with modern geometric bridges and finished with fine horological graining, the movement is fitted with an anti-magnetic Nivachron™ balance spring to ensure uncompromising precision against magnetic fields from laptops, smartphones, and electronic equipment.
Bold Contrast & High Legibility
The transparent sapphire dial is complemented by brushed rose-gold-toned hands and applied indices treated with Super-LumiNova. Rado’s signature moving anchor emblem sits at 12 o’clock over a synthetic ruby plate, underscoring the brand’s historic identity.
