II · The manufacture

Rado since 1917

Rado’s roots lie in the Schlup brothers’ movement factory, established in Lengnau in 1917. The Rado watch brand followed in 1957, turning component-making experience into complete watches. The DiaStar of 1962 used hard metal to explore resistance to surface wear. Integral introduced high-tech ceramic into the collection in 1986. The Ceramica of 1990 extended that material language across the case and bracelet. The V10K arrived in 2002 with a high-tech diamond surface. True Thinline took the ceramic case in a slimmer direction in 2011. Today Rado belongs to Swatch Group, with Lengnau remaining its Swiss home.

III · Ownership

Wearing and caring

  1. 1

    An automatic watch winds itself while worn. Left off the wrist for a couple of days it stops: wind it with the crown, then set the time and the date.

  2. 2

    Water resistance of 100 m and more is for swimming. Keep the crown screwed or pushed in, and do not use the pushers under water.

  3. 3

    Have the movement serviced every few years by the brand's own service or an authorised watchmaker.
